I am a Krispy Kreme fan. It's hard to beat those glazed donuts. Especially when they are hot. Dunkin has to much "cake" taste for me. I like many of the different flavors but I always come back to glazed.

Hi wlee, fortunately we have been exposed to neither such chain out here and long may we not be. Yet another example of American fast food spreading its bad habits and putting profits before health. Luckily the sinful foods we have here in the form of bougatsas and baklavas will ensure that there is no call to import such nutrion free junk.

I hope at least that they fry them in extra virgin olive oil then jb, but I rather suspect they use something more akin to used engine oil. I thought vegetarians weren't supposed to eat mars bars.

i think there are dunkin doughnuts here. however there is no way that they could ever compete with such heart-healthy national treats as deep fried mars bars.

OH health food they are most definitely not. But delicious they are. However the debate as to whether you like Krisy Kreme or Dunkin is as old as whether you like Coke or Pepsi. The battle is fierce on both sides.

You're making me so jealous! We don't have either of those chains here! I have had the privilege of trying both at some point in the past and I have to say as good as Dunkins are, I prefer Krispy Kreme or Krispy Krack as my other half and I call them. They're like fluffy circles of heaven!

Krispy Krack - that is great. I will use that from here on. Have you heard about those single serving packs they came out with - they are called "a dozen" :)

Sadly not, I've never seen them. I'm keeping my fingers crossed though!

Now it really depends. Krispy Kreme has amazing glazed donuts, but that is all I really remember them for. In my area we have a hometown donut shop called "Homecut Donuts" which is untouched. However, I would have to say Dunkin' Donuts if it must be between the two.

Out of all the Krisy Kreme varieties good old glazed will always fit the bill. Especially if they are hot.

As far as I know, there is only one Krispy Kreme in the Pacific NW, and no Dunkin Donuts. I tried both in the past, but can anyone tell me where is the nearest Dunkin Donuts (from Seattle), so I can respond to this discussion more objectively. I think I would need 2 dozen from each brand. And yes, assorted!

I don't know if 2 dozen would do it. You might need to increase that order, especially if you are going to include multiple varieties.

I prefer Dunkin Donuts, the sweetness is just right for me... Krispy Kreme is too sweet for my taste.

I love doughnuts as much as i love chocolates and ice creams. My co workers go nuts with krispy kreme. I like krispy kreme and their glazed donuts. But i love dunkin donuts, i grew up with those. Here in the philippines dunkin donuts is really big. The shops and stalls are almost available in every town unlike krispy kreme which are found in malls. I love dunkin donuts eversince especially the munchkins. We also have a local donut food chain here, mister donut. Its also good. Their donuts are not that too sweet and fluffy. And it comes into cute sizes.

Hello. I am a donut addict. Donut was my favorite breakfast every morning during my school days. I would rush to a coffee shop near my school in the morning,grab a couple of donuts, a cup of coffee, and run to the class room to be there in time. ( You know I am a late riser every morning ! Ha ha ! ) I still like donouts very much. Krispy Kreme or Dunkin Donuts is ok for me. Both have unique tastes.

There are so many people that just love Krispy Kreme donuts. I don't like them. I buy them for my daughter, she loves them. I had one and I hated them. I thought they were to sweet, and made me gums hurt. I will eat Dunkin Donuts though. When I can find them. There aren't that many Dunkin Donuts shops in my area anymore so I get get them to often. But I can usually find one when I travel. When I do, I will by pass Krispy Kreme every time for Dunkin.

Krispy Kreme are bad. We have a local bakery that has custard donuts and chocolate glazed donuts. They're my favorite and nothing can come close to them. Actually the bakery has hundreds of donuts but those are my favorites. Dunkin Donuts are alright but nothing out of this world. Everyone that has eaten at our bakery has given up eating Krispy Kreme and Dunkin Donuts. In fact it put Dunkin Donuts out of business.

Omg, I've been craving Krispy Kreme for like the longest time now. You know those glazed round donuts with the Creme filling inside? MMMMM, yuuuum xD. I basically like the glazed kinds of donuts, where it be chocolate or vanilla or coffee, it's still krispy kreme =]. I love that donut shop.
