Well, it was going to happen eventually.
I am no longer a Krispy Kreme virgin. Da*n those things are good. A very kind friend transported them from the closest KK - over 2 hours away. He went to the drive through and asked for the "pregnant woman" pack. LOL! So now Ihave a sampler pack and a plain glazed pack sitting on my coffee table, and I"m desperately trying to control myself from eatingmore until the other pregnant woman turns up to help me devour them. Talk about heaven on a stick! drool Yowie |

Bear in mind that one plain original glazed KK doughnut has 200 calories, of which 110 are from fat. But that's nothing compared to the Chocolate Malted Kreme doughnut that has 390 calories and 190 from fat!!!! -- Victor Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam he Email me he |

We had a KK store come to town just before Christmas, and my hubby, Dave and I went there to get some for a New Years Eve party we were going to. 2 dozen didn't last long! Patti |

Talk about heaven on a stick! drool I had heard about Krispy Kreme for ages. When I finally tasted a glazed one, I thought it was good, but I wasn't especially impressed. About a year later, I found that my local Albertson's supermarket has a case with an assortment. I tried the cream filled, and I was hooked! For a while, I found excuses to go to Albertson's two or three times a week, each time picking up two of the cream filled donuts, which I went home and immediately devoured. Finally I started looking at the scales. Now I limit my visits to one a week. I pick up three cream filled, but I eat only one a day. It isn't good, but it's an improvement. ;-) It really takes willpower to eat only one in a day, to stay away from the store most of the time, and to buy only three when I am there. ;-) Joy |

Well, it was going to happen eventually. I am no longer a Krispy Kreme virgin. When I read those calorie stats, I feel blessed that I was raised on good ol' Canadian Tim Horton doughnuts. Krispy Kreme has opened several stores up here (Toronto), and I've tried them a couple of times, but I can't stand them -- they're so SWEET! Just thinking of them sets my teeth on edge. There is something about them, though .... even though I knew that I couldn't stand them, when I saw a rack of the boxes while I was standing in the checkout line of a supermarket, I couldn't resist. The first one was, well, nice consistency but sweet; the second was SWEET!!!; the third to the nth were a duty 'cos I couldn't throw them out. D'you think they put something addictive in them?

Up until a couple of years ago, I don't think there was any Krispy Kreme in Southern California. I heard when they opened one about 30 miles from me, and read that there were long lines of people waiting to get in. Then one day, I noticed that Albertson's had them. We have two stores from that chain in my town, and both have the donuts, so if you have an Albertson's near you, I'd check there first. OTOH, you may be better off if you never discover their deliciousness. G Joy |

G I odn't know what hteir marketing strategy will be in NZ, but here they are their own franchise (like McDonalds) and wouldn't be selling their donuts to any other store for re-sale. AFAIK, there are currently only 2 Krispy Kreme stores in Australia, although I'm sure they'll sprout up every where like Starbucks did. I don't mind Starbucks, but much prefer Gloria Jean coffee.
