I like them both. Especially Dunkin' Donuts which my dad gets me a muffin at Dunkin' Donuts and during the holidays I might get me a gingerbread donut and during the Fall I might get me a pumpkin donut or pumpkin muffin. Because my father like his coffee from DD. I also like Krispy Kreme to.

I'm not that big on donuts, but I'll have to choose DD.

I like Krispy Kreme better. It's kinda like a family donut to my family. I remember my parents bringing home a dozen or two of fresh hot KK donuts every week or two when i was a kid. To be honest, i haven't eaten Dunkin Donuts but once or twice. We don't have many locations here where i live.

Unfortunately up here in Alabama they don't have Dunkin Donuts. However, when I lived in Florida there was a Krispy Kreme and a Dunkin Donuts almost right next to each other. I would always stop and grab some Munchkins and a mixed dozen doughnuts before I went to work. I really miss them...

Oh man, in the New England area, you see DD everywhere!! They must be based out of NE. You'll drive, see one, then not even a mile down the road there's another one. And you know what, their drive-thrus are ALWAYS busy.

they closed one of the only krispy kremes in my state but i was not a fan the few times i did go. their donuts are TOO sweet. instant diabetes.
i like dunkin donuts, they are affordable, they're coffee is classic and i like their donut variety, especially the munchkins. they also give a lot of free stuff away like iced coffees and such.

you see them all over here in the NYC area too, tons of them on the highway, in supermarkets, in gas stations...EVERYWHERE.
anyway, i used to love Krispy Kreme, but i havent had them in a really long time. so ill say i like both. i love Dunkin Donuts too, they have good donuts and their drinks are really good.

I'd go with Krispy Kreme
My personal favorites are the glazed creme filled (the white creme, not the yellow bavarian pudding-like stuff).

We don't have any DD, and KK is too surgery to eat too often, so I vote local bakery.

I remember in the days before product placement, sitcoms would have generic food items. Luther from Coach was carring a donut box that said "Donuts Donuts". You could tell by the insignia on the box it was supposed to be Dunkin Donuts. I wish shows would do that again instead of shilling a million brands per episode.

Dunkin' Donuts, for sure! I love their honey bran raisin muffins :drool: Their donuts are really good too (I like Toasted Coconut or Jelly). Krispy Kreme is just too rich for me....I always feel sick after I eat one of their doughnuts :(

I haven't been to either in years, but I far prefer DD to Krispy Kreme. Krispy Kreme is like liquid sugar. Disgusting.
OH Nuts!

Krispy Kremes are heavenly. But no more for me. Eating Krispy Kremes would definitely put me on the fast track for Type 2 Diabetes, as I'm borderline. However I do have my memories!!! And Thank God, do not have a bad sweet tooth.
As for DDs they're OK but Krispy Kremes rock!
I like all donuts, I don't discriminate.

All donuts are good but Krispy Kremes are in a world of their own IMHO. They melt in your mouth!

Every Friday my team at work always chips in for donuts at a local shop called Spudnuts - which is just down the street from our office building. They have very good donuts and very fair prices!! :D

The state I live at (Texas), we mainly have ma and pa type donut shops!
I like Krispy Kreme donuts, but they only exist in the touristy areas of the major cities in Texas (only 6 KKs in all of Texas that I know of!)
But I go to cross into Louisiana, and Krispy Kremes are all over the place! (just about every town of 5000 or more in the Pelican State and other southern states vs only 2 or 3 per major city of 500,000 plus in Texas and points west and north!)
Too bad I haven't seen any Dunkan Donuts that was open in Texas in at least 5 years!

I think it depends on where you live in TX. I've seen a lot of Dunkin Donuts, But you're right about Krispy Kreme.

I have noticed at the grocery store where I do my shopping that the Krispy Kreme donuts that they sell are very expensive. About $8.00 for 1 Dozen! Are those the typical prices in the area where you live? I find it hard to believe that people would pay that much money.

Wow! $9.00 for 1 dozen donuts. What happened to the good ol' days? I'll stick with my peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! :lol:
Krispy Kreme donuts are my favorite but I very seldom buy them, too many calories.

I love peanut butter & jelly too. But I'm not having any of the real stuff til I get down to my target weight - 17 more lbs to go. Right now I have Better N Peanut Butter - it has 85% less fat and 40% less cals than reg peanut butter. It also has a sweet taste to it - like peanut butter mixed with sugar - so I just have that alone on a high fiber English Muffin. Nowheres near as heavenly as a Krispy Kreme but still good - AND A WHOLE LOT more nutritious.

Dunkin' Donuts, probably more for nostalgic reasons. The first time I ate at a Dunkin' donuts was when I was a kid, and my family was driving through Nebraska about 3 in the morning on the way to California. They had one in Lincoln and the fresh donuts and coffee made an indelible impression on my memory. It was really good!:D

All donuts, by dfn., are good and you could put 3 or 4 dozen in a trough and I would gobble them up. Oink! Oink! Oink! (Sorry folks, just one of my sicker food fantasies I just wanted to let go of). In real life were I to have a donut it would be 1/2 of a glazed Krispy Kreme with the other 1/2 given to a friend.

I like Krispy Kreme a little more than Dunkin Donuts. But the Krispy Kreme stores in my city are closing down. I don't mind Dunkin Donuts at all my coworkers and I go there on Friday mornings.

I am not really a donut fan at all. I used to like Krispy Kreme because those were the only glazed donuts I could stand to eat. However, the last time I ate one it was so sweet, it was like pouring a jar of sugar into my mouth! Ugh! Now I don't think I could ever eat one again!
My husband is dying to go to this place in Portland (OR), called Voodoo Donuts. I swear, they have a Pepto Bismol flavored donut!! EWWWW!!!!
