Please,please, please come to Hickory North Carolina!!!!!! We only have one Krispy Kreme Store Dunkin' is soooooooooo much better and their coffee is the BEST!!!
I will agree that DD has better coffee. But that is it. It is even blasphemy to think so ;)
Now, I have to say that Krispy Kreme off of the belt thing, nice and hot is definitely good, but I grew up with Dunkin Donuts, and they are still my fave. Although, I don't discriminate against any donut....but I would probably choose Dunkin over Krispy if I was faced with a life and death decision. It's a northern thing!!
Donuts are one of my biggest weaknesses, and I've never met one I didn't like, but I have to go with KK without a doubt. (I agree that DD has better coffee - that's actually what we brew at home.) However, I have always been disappointed that there is only one KK is all of Raleigh and DDs are everywhere!! So occasionally DD does get my business. But my heart belongs to KK...
It really is a North-South issue.
