When a new Krispy Kreme place opened half a mile from where I live, I
thought I was doomed. (My relationship with food is, if something is
bad for me, I'm pretty sure to love it.)An East-coast based friend of
mine used to RAVE about Krispy Kreme donuts, so naturally, I had to
try them. I was both relieved and disappointed to find out they were
small, as you said, and while tasty enough when fresh, nothing out of
the ordinary in the donut line. I do second the advice of others and
recommend buying them fresh from a KK place rather than a supermarket
kiosk, but even then, they don't do a lot for me. I do have a sort of
nauseated fascination with watching them get their sugar glaze bath as
they pass through on the conveyor belt. But fortunately for my
health, I find them quite resistable.
