I live near where the KK donuts originated so of course they are a big deal
here (North Carolina). I am sure they are over-hyped - after, how great can
*any* donut be? - but a fresh (not supermarket-packaged) original (glazed)
KK donut is quite an experience. I do it about once a year but that's all I
can take!
