Dunkin' Donuts vs. Krispy Kreme (Round 1)

Seeing the thread in Rumor Mill and me thoroughly trouncing upon Krispy Kreme, I decided to ask something which hasn't been asked to the people: Which is better: Dunkin' Donuts, or Krispy Kreme?

Let's look at the competators:
Krispy Kreme:
Breadless fluff, mostly air and sugar designed solely to taste kind of good and maximize profits. Also named after the french word for Semen (don't eat the filling).
Dunkin' Donuts:
Full-goodness, honest donuts. REAL donuts with a wide selction, and more than just round donuts with holes in them. Can actually be considered a mildly healthful meal.
Name lets you know what the actual store is without any mystery--also, suggest a possible combination of delicious drink and donut.

Can you guess which one I voted for?

Krispy Kreme...the melt in your mouth goodness...mmmmm. They have one on campus and I've successfully resisted the urge not to buy one (though I am guilty of having ones that people give me).

I'm sorry--I don't see the melting thing to be superior in any way to actually being able to have a meal. Of course, the best donuts I've ever had are a small chain named "The Friendly Donut Shop." Best donuts ever at the best prices ever.
Woah, it's $6 here for the first dozen. I might actually consider the place a legitimate business if it were a buck less to compete with the rest of the town where it's all $3 or $4 for a dozen REAL donuts.

I would have to say Krispy Kreme, though I don't mind Dunkin Donuts.

Kremes are intoxicating. A lot of good people got addicted to them in last year Canadian Regional Kickoff, as they are pretty new to Canada. They aren't doughnuts though, so I nominate Dunkin' to win by default. Or Tim Horton's.

I've only had bagels at Tim Hortons - but they were the best bagels I ever had! I want to go back to Canada just so I can eat at Tim Hortons.

Dunkin Donuts are soooo much better than krispy kreme. Besides the fact that I think that krispy kreme donuts are sort of disgusting, dunkin donuts makes the most addictive donuts ever. Especially the strawberry frosted ones.... mmhm.

There is some kind of force, be it for good or for evil....that causes the addictive properties in both Krispy Kreme "donuts" and girl scout cookies.

I sit and watch as over 3/4 of the population is sucked in...and I can do nothing to stop it. Nor do I care. But those Kreme's disgust me. Blech.
