It seems to be a preference thing... either people like cake donuts,
or yeast donuts.

Krispy Kreme is the King in yeast donuts. We used to get them from
the KK in downtown Columbia, SC in the '60's when my family passed
that way. We'd buy two dozen... one for the ride home, and one for
the next day.

KK makes a pretty good cruller as well. Those places up in Toronto
(Tim Horton's?) made a slightly better cruller, but their yeast ones
sucked.

Krispy Kreme donuts are a relatively new item in my part of California.
I'm watching _That 70's Show_ and a box of Krispy Kreme donuts appears.

Have Krispy Kreme donuts been around a long time east of California
(that's
my guess) or was it out of place as a 1970's stage prop?

I used the word prop, so this really is an on topic post; really, it is.

We have a KK factory about 5 miles away. As I can't eat less than half a
dozen
of the buggers when they're still hot, I tend to stay away from the damn
place.

Coming home from nights of drinking, in my youth, we stopped at the one
just
south of Alexandria on Rt. 1 and bought a doz. each fresh out of the
fryer.
Damn things melted in your mouth and the doz. was gone in about 3 minutes.
Try sleeping while drunk and on a sugar high!


They closed that place and built a brand new one right next door. Donuts
are
pretty damn good, too.

The votes seem to be on the side of Krispy Kreme, so I've gotta ask, what's
wrong with Shortwave? Is he a communist? Or worse, a liberal?

Firstly he has no class. And, secondly he has not taste!

Good old KK - Back in the 60's in Birmingham my buddies and I would
stop by KK after dropping off our dates and get fresh donuts right off
the conveyor, dipped in chocolate and served on a plate. A few of
those and a glass of milk would sober you right up. Can't get better
than that when fresh and hot but don't care for them cold.
