If you've ever extolled the virtues of fresh Krispy Kreme donuts...

If you then proceed to let your daughter rip open a package of press on nails so she can be the prettiest princess, then flop around on the ledge of our window, losing most of those fake nails, and demand (not request, DEMAND!) the clerk get you some obscure brand of cigarettes he/she/it has never heard of, without so much as a thank you, and then attempt to come back into the store after the clerk has found the trail of evidence pointing at your daughter as a thief, do not be surprised if he/she/it kicks you out.

But fresh krispy kreme donuts make the world go round!

...If nothing else, they make me round... >_> <_<

Clearly, you have never eaten a Krispy Kreme donut.

Man, they just renovated the KK bakery right up the road here (yeah, I have to drive by when they are making the things...it's enough to make you forsake Adkins on occasion. The smell...Oh, dear Lord in Heaven, the smell...). It looks like a giant KK donut box now.

Damnit Now I want Krispy Kreme..... And the closest one is WAY out in the valley! Why do you hate me!?


:P

[Stryker One]

Meh

KK, eh, they're OK. For pure doughnut heaven, try Westernco Doughnut.

The previous clearance swamp regime wanted us to be all things to all people, so they rolled out all kinds of half-baked ideas of things we should sell (Milk! Newspapers! Expanded grocery section! Dollar store!).

The one and only thing they brought in that I liked was Krispy Kreme doughnuts, probably fairly fresh from the bakery because they arrived very early in the morning.

When I was on third shift, we used to get a box just for us third shift people to enjoy. Until the day people began complaining. Party poopers.

Mmmmmmmm, Krispy Kreme... ~ <3 Pure love in pastry form ~ <3 Nothing compares for us. There's a Dunkin Doughnuts across the street from Land of the Red Vest, but we all still prefer KK to DD. Leave a box of each in the break room, and the KK is gone in an hour. The DD is there by the end of the day still, with one lonely doughnut left. If that TELLS you anything... ~

That kid's not gonna grow up well if their parent acts like that towards the CLERK for THEIR kid stealing...

Sorry.... I can't stand KK donuts in any way, shape, or form. They're tasteless, over-puffy, over-sweet, and have no substance. Give me a real doughnut any day.

^-.-^

Really? A hot fresh KK is my idea of ambrosia.

[dendawg]

There is nothing quite like a hot, fresh Krispy Kreme....

And a nice, hot Dicken's Cider.

They used to be mine too. That was until I met my now hubby. He was a baker for them. The sickly sweet smell that embed-ed itself into every molecule of his clothing It made it so I couldn't stand them any longer. He would get home around 1am walk into the bedroom and the smell would wake me up. I finally started making him go into the bathroom shower and change before coming into the bedroom. That was (oh god... I'm getting old) 17+ years ago.

omg thaaaaaaank yoooooou...i think i had a KK years ago. maybe. not sure. but the smell is just...no. there used to be this bakery in the town i grew up. it looked like a basket. they made the best doughnuts. they had this one that was all raspberry filled and delicious. mmm...they had a good lemon one. and creme. mmm...
but alas, they shut down a few years ago. right around the time the only KK bakery opened up in town, now that i think about it. yup. they tore down this awesome building with mega-tasty doughnuts and built a car parts store there.

...jerks.

A little of A, a little of B

KK is kinda like Starbucks here -- why have them when the local stuff is so much better? o_O (not to mention significantly cheaper -- especially in SB's case)

I will admit, FRESH HOT KK is pretty good. Once it cools off, it's like warm Coke: tolerable at best; but usually far lower down the scale than that . That, methinks, is why they vanish quickly. There's no choice. You HAVE to eat them hot. By the end of the day, they're inedible; at leat Dunkins (or Tastee Donuts, here) are still soft and reasonably tasty after having sat out for awhile.
