These donuts are the most disguising donuts you can shove into your mouth hole.

Buy from local places instead - they are ALWAYS better tasting, and it won't make you feel like shit later.

I saw this chain open one 4 stores down from one that's been there for 20 years. They are shitty excuse for a business.

    I agree on them being unhealthy, but I have to disagree on them being disgusting (taste-wise).

    They're engineered to pack as much sugar and fat into a package that feels light to the mouth and dissolves all that flavor quickly. Trying to do that is not a novel concept - take pastries, for example - but with modern technology it's more extreme and is easy to mass-produce.

    So, they're a very different food from regular donuts, and they are engineered to taste too good for humans to properly handle. Food like that is why Americans eat too much food.

    Just because a place listed local, doesn't mean it isn't shit. There are 3 local places near me. One is genuinely amazing, but also very pricey. The other two taste like they haven't changed their oil in over a year.

    So if I'm grabbing donuts for the office, hell yes I'm going to Krispy Kreme.

    The doughnut shop near me has had the same Vietnamese couple running it for the last 40 years. They just retired and their granddaughter and husband took over.

    The quality went from best doughnut iv ever had to crap.

    The husband does the cooking and man... He sucks at it. It makes me sad ):
