Dunkin' Donuts vs. Krispy Kreme (Round 1)

[Koko Ed]

When a Dunkin' Donuts opens it's just snother store but when a Krispy Kream opens it's an event!

[Ashley Weed]

I REALLY like Krispy Kremes when they are hot and oozing with their goodness... however, the nearest Krispy Kreme is almost an hour and a half drive from here... so, they aren't easy access..... however, In a nearby town (about a 30 min drive from here)... fellow teammates live there, and they have a new bakery... mmm, Endless Mountains Bakery... almost exactly like Krispy Kreme...

I would have to go with Dunkin Donuts for the more well known variety... and much easier access being its about 3 miles from the shop.

Dunkin' Doughnuts are the better doughnut!

Do a search, and check out last years' donut wars.

Just so you know, the good guys won - Krispy Kreme all the way!!!

Y = AX^2 + B..... ehhh, whatever

That's what happens when someone goes on a 10 month FIRST hiatus (and me of all people to do so).

Now come my rocket scientist friend... come over to the dark side! Oh, and on the way, can you pick me up a chocolate muffin, half a dozen blueberry donuts, and a medium coffee?

Those of you non-bakers may not understand, but hey, there"s always a chance...
The point of a pastry (such as doughnuts) is to provide something with a large amount of sugar and large air pockets with the entire structure remaining stable and edible (sounds like robotics - drill as many holes as possible without making the robot break in half). Krispuy Kreme fulfills this perfectly and even provides them fresh, so they are wonderful. The doughnuts at Dunkin Donuts are much more diverse, but they are much closer to being bagels than doughnuts. They are very thick and dense (good for dipping, but very bad without a drink) which may appeal to some people"s tastes, but Kripsy Kremes are much truer doughnuts (this is really asking for a well-documented scientific study).

and thus...Krispy Kreme is the winner!

I must add though that Dunkin' Donuts Vanilla Chai is my newest addiction.

I must vote for the Kremes, because I only care about one doughnut: Custard-filled.

When looking at custard-filled doughnuts, I have never found anything to compare with Krispy Kreme. (Although, I haven't yet tried the local Kreme competition, Lamar's)

[John Bono]

Wait, the big-$@#$@#$@#, conglomerate corporation that OWNS the donut world--the Microsoft of donuts for crying out loud--are the good guys?

Oh hey, there's another page. How 'bout that...

Hmm... maybe you wouldn't be so fat if it didn't take six donuts to fill you. And why is the opening of a store that looks like the other ten thousand an event, I ask? Do they have more than ten different kinds of donuts there or something?

[Da SPAMinatress]

i'm not really big on donuts at all.... but, I think that Dunkin' DOnuts are better...

krispy kreme makes me sick

[SwordSerenity]

ive never had Krispy Kremes

This is true- a KK opened recently in a neighboring town (Milford) from where I work (Fairfield). Traffic was backed up for 2 miles with a line of people that spread well accross the large plaza parking lot, all wishing the grandeur of delectable doughnuts. I heard there was some sort of promotion- where the first customer of the newly opened shop would recieved 1 year of donuts free.

ooooh my vote is krispy kreme...although there doesnt seem to be either of the chains within this college town of mine. I know for a fact the nearest one to here is in bakersfield.
