Default What IS the big deal about KK?

I grew up with the idea that Krispy Kreme was *the* only kind of
donut. I was never very happy with the other brands I could get
here in California. Not sweet enough - a donut is *supposed* to
be sweet; that's why it's called a donut and not a bagel.

The plain glazed KK ones still hot out of the machine are great.
I still like them later. Five seconds in a microwave restores
a bit of that "fresh" flavor. The ones in the grocery stores
don't seem to be the same.

The one that I really risk going into a feeding frenzy on, though,
are the chocolate frosted creme filled ones. All that
Winchells/Dunkin/etc/etc have along that line are custard-filled,
which I found to be a huge disappointment. Be warned, though,
two of these, and you'll be sugar-ODed.

(Krispy Kreme also has a custard-filled donut, for people who
are into that sort of thing.

I am. That's the only KK donut I like. I don't much enjoy the warm, fresh
glazed ones.

I too grew up thinking KK donuts were what all donuts should taste like,
because they were a staple of our weekend breakfasts. (Fresh from the KK
store, not the grocery store.)

A few years later I couldn't take the sweetness so much, and I can only eat
them a couple times a year.
