My Edits[edit]

Japan[edit]

I added the bit about Japan. If anyone has any issues with the article I referenced, take it up with me or find a good one in English, I couldn't find something that looked reliable and wasn't in Japanese. But my addition is almost a direct summary. Well, it pretty much is.

oh, feel free to update the tense of my language after Friday... It'll be open then.

Krispy Kreme Challenge[edit]

I also can't let this article sit without the addition of this:

http://www4.ncsu.edu/~gjmulhol/kkc/index.htm

a 4 mile charity event run where you eat 12 doughnuts in the middle of it. There plenty of media sources on it, and is plenty Wiki-worthy. It's fairly new, but has become a solid annual event. Where should this go in the article? It seems to not fit with any current headings.theanphibian 04:16, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have been bold and added a section for this race. The KKC article has been created and it is undoubtedly connected to the chain (the entire point is to eat the Krispy Kreme donuts). The logic behind the creation of a new section is that other stuff or charity events could get put in there eventually. theanphibian 08:55, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Overview[edit]

The article says that Dunkin' and Winchell's are Krispy Kreme's competitors, however I would not call them direct competitors. Although their names have the word donut in it, most of their revenue comes from coffee sales which far outpaces their donut sales. Dunkin' and Winchell's more directly compete with Starbucks as they are blue collar versions of that chain. Also, the article states that Krispy Kreme now only gives free donuts to children under 12 but I was in there just a few weeks ago and they gave me a free donut as well as my kids. That policy may not be true in all areas of the country. Maybe that should be researched better.

From what I've seen in several Krispy Kreme stores I've been in across the nation, many of them will give 1 free doughnut off the hot line when you walk in. Obviously, they're counting on almost everyone to buy a dozen. Not all stores do this, though. I think it also might have something to do with the layout of the store. At the store in Montgomery, AL, the counter is in the front, making it somewhat awkward to try to distribute doughnuts among a line. In other stores, where you enter in the side and come around to the front, they'll give you a free doughnut as you come in. Cs92 16 November 2006

Talk[edit]

Tasty donuts from the American South, expanding their presence like kudzu. When a brave soul opened the first New York Krispy Kreme shop in Chelsea in the late 1990s, pandemonium broke out. Now, nobody in Manhattan gives a damn about Dunkin Donuts. Krispy Kreme shops are multiplying like, um, weasels. Today the unwashed North. Tomorrow, the world.

The best thing about Krispy Kreme is their sign outside, which lights up when the doughnuts are hot and fresh and soft and divine and--ahem. Sooo good. They've recently been expanding West, including the San Francisco Bay Area. Absolutely a source of all things True and Good. Linker 05:45, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • I can't stand Krispy Kreme. I like our hometown store's donuts the best; but the best chain store is probably Southern Maid. Rhymeless 20:07, 15 Sep 2004 (UTC)
  • I had a Krispy Kreme glazed donut today and did not care for it. It was the same bad donut the last time i had one about about 15 years ago. Too much frosting, still.
I could easily eat 6 Dunkins while only able to force 1 Krispy down after knocking off about 60%of the frosting.
Yeah, you know what that makes you? FAT. That's exactly why Krispy Kreme doughnuts are glazed by default: so you don't kill yourself stuffing your face with them!
I did have a chocolate covered cream filled affair that was good. The coffee, black, was tasty and smooth.
However, Dunkin Donuts rule!

  • Krispy Kreme are inferior southern donuts. Dunkin Donuts is the true source of all things True and Good, at least as far as donuts go. Viva New England.

Just like always, something from the north is reliable and well-managed, and something from the south is run poorly (overexpansion) and embroiled in scandal...reconstruction ended 150 years too soon.

I must say, I have never heard of Krispy Kreme giving out free hot doughnuts as this article suggests. By the way, for the superior New Englanders, this is how you sign your comments. Spleezleton 07:06, 12 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Aaah, Reconstruction--the age where New Englanders tried their hardest to damage the South(they had a feeling of vengeance, very unhealthy when you're trying to reconstruct). The carpetbaggers were the ones with the most scandals, by the way(you could say that being there was a scandal for people who went to the South for the purpose of political opportunism). But that's beside the point. Dunkin Donuts and Krispy Kreme are competitors as much as Wendy's(minus their chicken sandwiches) and Chick-Fil-A are. They're in the same general field, but they're selling different products.
    • Krispy Kreme tastes like boiled ass. Dunkin' Donuts all the way. No flavorless Southrun donuts for me thanks.
    • Krispy Kreme is to Dunkin Donuts what Steak and Shake is to McDonald's. This must be a north-south thing. I am from the south, grew up eating KK donuts, and I'd walk 10 miles to get a KK donut. I wouldn't let my dog eat a dunkin donuts product.
I read several articles in the local news in the Boston area that explained why Krispy Kreme failed in New England. In the South, a donut shop is primarily about donuts. In New England, a donut shop is primarily about coffee. (I know, you're all going to ask why they don't call it a coffee shop -- it's just an accident of history, dating from the days when New Englanders cared more about donuts.) Krispy Kreme has the better donuts, but DD has the better coffee . (I know it's not that good, but it sure beats Krispy Kreme.) Another factor is that New Englanders tend to be more weight conscious, as shown by the federal statistics on obesity. Bostoner (talk) 01:06, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Historians are going to find this talk page and immediately conclude that the Second American Civil War was primarily fought over which doughnut chain is better. You're all silly for arguing. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 152.23.196.162 (talk) 17:45, 28 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]


Clearing up false rumors[edit]

Where the heck are you guys from? KK is from the south...Winston-Salem to be exact. Yes, the expanded too quickly and screwed up when their "new car smell" went away. Corporate management gave the company a horrible name (Just ask Jim Cramer). To be honest, Dunkin Doughnuts and Krispy Kreme sell two different things; KK specializes in glazed and Dunkin Donuts specializes in cake donuts. If you go to KK and ask for a "Cake Doughnut", they'll give you the same thing that you will find at Dunkin Donuts. KK just decided to make their glazed donut their signature donut instead of the "cake". So if you don't like the "regular" glazed, get a cake. You'll feel better.

AND ALSO, yes they give out TONS of free donuts. I live in Winston-Salem, KK's corporate headquarters city. If you go on a tour, you can eat all the ones that don't turn out right on the conveyor belt. Plus, they do tons of "fund raiser" dozen donut box sales, giving them to Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts and Lions Clubs and all other civic organizations to sell. I don't know about everywhere else, but here in NC, it's extremely popular. KK donuts are even sold in grocery stores, gas stations, etc, etc. By the way, in my opinion, KK donuts are best hot off the conveyor. The cold ones aren't that great, because you're right, the frosting falls off when it's stiff and cold. Try it warm next time. Hopefully I've cleared up all the confusion and misunderstanding on this talk page. --TinMan 03:03, 4 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Krispy Kreme profits

Many gas stations have an agreement with KK where any donuts they don't sell locally will be taken back and refunded (and subsequently thrown in a dumpster). KK's goal is to get about 34% of their stock back each night from such contracts ("noone has to take the last donut" is one of their mantras). I think this policy should be addressed as it is wasteful environmentally and monetarily.

You're going to have to prove that it actually happens, first. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 152.23.196.162 (talk) 17:46, 28 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

- If you do not like the Krispy Kreme Original Glazed Doughnut hot of the belt, you do not reserve the right to any taste buds. I don't get how you think they have too much frosting. It is the dunkin donuts that are loaded with frosting and sugar. Unlike dunkin donuts, KK's have class. And you shouldn't complain about the price. It is your fault that you didn't patronize them well enough. It is like deciding between a small, high quality and high priced cake, or a Bulk cake where the only good part is the softness. Dunkin Donuts also makes most of their profit from coffe, not donuts. -Anonymous, 12-23-06, 8:43 am.


Dunkin Donuts and Krispy Kreme taste about the same, but DD's glazed(regular glazed) tastes too sugary and KK's cake(regular unglazed if they still make them) taste like paper.

Worst CEO[edit]

Worst CEO: Krispy Kreme's Scott Livengood (marketwatch.com)

This market link on the CEO is broken just to make note of it. However Krispy Kreme is making a slow come back. I agree Krispy Kreme put too much capital in the company that ultimately hurt them when the recession kicked in. It could be 5 years from now the company could be back to it original stance when they folded so many donut shops across the country during the bad economy. I do not eat donuts by I admire Krispy Kreme's product.--Globalstatus (talk) 17:54, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio?[edit]

This large addition of non-wikified text by an anonymous user looks very much like it has been copied and pasted from somewhere. It doesn't show up in Google, but the addition of this block, all below the external links and category tags seems too suspicious to leave it in the article. Angela. July 3, 2005 03:09 (UTC)

South Korea[edit]

Over the past few years Krispy Kreme South Korea have opened seventeen stores, fifteen in Seoul/Gyeonggi-do and two in Busan. These include hot locations and fresh stores.

The article previously had the following:

[...] have opened eight stores. [...] At least ten more stores are set to open over the next four years to fulfil the original franchise agreement.

Does that mean there's only one more mandatory opening left? --Kjoonlee 14:53, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hot locations and fresh stores[edit]

What are hot locations and fresh stores? The only place I've been to had conveyor belts and what not and you could see the donuts being made. --Kjoonlee 14:53, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've been to one "fresh store" in Lotte Myeongdong. http://www.krispykreme.co.kr/asp/hotnow/hotnighthour.asp 221.150.54.152 10:46, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Kjoonlee, that is probably a "Hot" store, if there's a conveyor belt. If there's a neon sign saying "Hot Doughnuts," that's definitely it. I guess the fresh stores are stores that don't sell hot doughnuts; I don't think they all do it. 152.23.196.162 17:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Krisky Kreme has recently implemented a new hub-and-spoke business model where donuts are being made at a central location and shipped to the donut shops. As such, I know of at least one location (the one on Abercorn in Savannah GA) where they have taken out the donut machine and concealed this by covering over the glass panels where you used to be able to see the donuts being produced.

The "Hot Light" is now left on all the time, and there is a guy at the back where the donut machine used to be who takes cold donuts out of a box on an as-needed basis and places them on the conveyor belt. The donuts run through a warmer and have the glaze added. So although the donuts are hot, the "Hot Light" is now nothing more than a meaningless advertising gimick.Quietplayerone (talk) 04:08, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Problem with Growth section[edit]

"Big Money began another phase of rapid extrication in the 1990s, opening stores outside the United States where most of their stores were located. Then, in December 2001, Krispy Kreme opened its first store outside the U.S. in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, just outside Toronto."

Which was it, 1990s or 2001, when Krispy Kreme expanded outside of the US?

Eli lilly 01:02, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seems that Krispy Kreme is having a rebound success[1] and seems to be turning around on the growth plan. For the last 3 years they have gone down hill but are somehow turing things around on NSNBC 2 weeks ago. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.69.155.2 (talk) 06:09, 10 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Krispy Kreme UK[edit]

I disagree - it is very helpful to know the uniqueness of the UK version, as there are differences in marketing, products, availability, and store format. 172.143.253.237 17:16, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Trans Fat Controversy[edit]

This section should probably be either moved or removed. It isn't really a controversy that they use trans fat, and it's a doughnut that has 18% of the recommended daily fat--there are more inherent health problems. Medium fries at McDonald's, Burger King, and Jack in the Box all have more trans fat; it's something very common with deep frying. 171.71.37.103 17:30, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed: the section either needs to be made part of a broader section about Krispy Kreme's nutritional profile, or it needs to be removed. As it stands, no controversy is documented; the reader is expected to infer a controversy from the mere fact that the doughnuts contain a lot of trans fat. That means the material as currently written does not belong in the "Controversies" section. --Tkynerd 18:32, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As a quick fix, I moved it out of Controversies and renamed it "Health Concerns," but again, they're doughnuts, not salads. 171.71.37.103 19:35, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Im from the UK, and I went into a local Kripsy Kreme store, and jokingly said how the 12 donuts I was about to eat were going kill me because of the high trans fat level. The person behind the counter claimed there was no Trans fat in KK's I was a bit surprised. Either she was misrepresenting the company, or there is no trans fat, or the UK donuts are different. Either way they still taste damn fine, damn fine. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.72.13.78 (talk) 12:07, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

i think the uk passed some laws reguarding trans-fat the usa has yet to adopt. someone from the uk would be better at commenting on this. Law/Disorder 20:50, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I put on the page that Krispy Kreme is now free of trans fat. I know because I saw something at a Krispy Kreme location that said "0 grams of trans fat". C4pt4in W1k1 18:45, 17 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unencyclopedic Content?[edit]

I think it's needed to report some shop closures, but I doubt whether some content in Krispy Kreme#Problems is exactly encyclopedic. Is it necessary to report where does KK still have stores in Canada? Is it ever necessary to list all closed locations in New York? --Samuel di Curtisi di Salvadori 05:14, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

i removed some nonsense from that section. looked a bit like a disgruntled x-employee wrote part of the arizona section. Law/Disorder 20:48, 8 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Internally Inconsistent[edit]

The following paragraph seems to contradict itself at least twice, can someone who knows the correct timeline correct it?

Krispy Kreme began another phase of rapid expansion in the 1990s, opening stores outside the United States where most of their stores were located. Then, in December 2001, Krispy Kreme opened its first store outside the U.S. in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, just outside Toronto. Since 2004, Krispy Kreme has rapidly expanded its international operations.

Puerto Rico[edit]

Contagia a la Isla la fiebre de donas Abre Krispy Kreme en Caguas provocando filas kilométricas.

Por Marie Custodio Collazo / mcustodio@elnuevodia.com

El tráfico en Caguas estaba imposible ayer, pero no tenía nada que ver con las carreteras en reparación. La causa eran las cientos de personas que llegaron de toda la Isla para ser las primeras en degustar las famosas donas de la cadena Krispy Kreme.

Según la información provista por la empresa, al momento de encender el letrero fluorescente “Hot Light” a las 6:00 a.m. había aproximadamente 600 personas esperando. El público respondió con vítores y aplausos a la esperada inauguración.

La primera persona en llegar a la fila fue Marta Gavilán a la 1 p.m. del lunes. “Mi hijo de 15 años es superfanático de Krispy Kreme, pero tenía dos exámenes hoy (ayer) y no podía amanecerse allí. Así es que yo quise ir a sentarme a esperar las donas por él”, dijo Gavilán.

Ella y las 99 personas que le siguieron recibirán una docena de donas gratis semanal por el próximo año.

Durante un recorrido a media mañana, el tiempo promedio que habían esperado las personas en la fila era de dos a tres horas.

Los ejecutivos de Krispy Kreme estaban emocionados por la gran cantidad de público e indicaron que su hora de cierre es la medianoche, pero que se ajustarán a los clientes.

Juan Antonio “Tony” Larrea, presidente de la junta de Caribbean Glaze Corporation, y otros miembros del equipo gerencial se ubicaron dentro del local para gozarse las expresiones de la gente que probaba sus emblemáticas donas glaceadas calientes.

Larrea comentó que una embarazada esperó largas horas por un antojo de las donas antes de seguir su camino al hospital para dar a luz.

Lillian Cosme llegó antes de las 8 de la mañana luego de dejar a sus hijos en la escuela. Nunca había probado las donas de Krispy Kreme, pero le daba curiosidad por la agresiva publicidad de la empresa antes de la apertura.

Pero no todos estaban contentos. Una familia de Guaynabo se fue con las manos vacías porque se cansaron de hacer la fila bajo el candente sol. “Deberían tener empleados vendiendo afuera de la tienda para agilizar el proceso”, dijo uno de los disgustados.

Cumpleaños Feliz

Una de las que se encontraba en la fila de Krispy Kreme era Eva Rodríguez de Humacao. Ayer era su cumpleaños y hasta su esposo Angel faltó al trabajo para acompañarla.

“Mis hijos y yo las probamos un día que las estaban regalando en un semáforo en Hato Rey y nos encantaron”, expresó la mujer que cantó con donas en la boca como parte de un concurso de una emisora radial que animó el evento temprano en la mañana.

Island contagious fever Opens Krispy Kreme doughnuts in Caguas causing rows LF.

By Marie Custodio Collazo / mcustodio@elnuevodia.com

The traffic in Caguas was impossible yesterday, but had nothing to do with the roads in repair. The cause were hundreds of people came from all over the island to be the first to taste the famous doughnuts from Krispy Kreme chain.

According to information provided by the company at the time of fluorescent lighting the sign "Hot Light" at 6:00 am there were approximately 600 people waiting. The audience responded with cheers and applause to the expected inauguration.

The first person to reach the row was Marta Gavilan at 1 pm on Monday. "My son is 15 years of superfanático Krispy Kreme, but had two exams today (yesterday) and could not dawn there. So I wanted to go sit to wait for the bagels for him, "said Gavilan.

She and the 99 people who followed him receive a dozen doughnuts free weekly by next year.

During a tour in mid-morning, the average time that people had waited in line was two to three hours.

Krispy Kreme executives were excited by the large number of public and indicated that its closing time is midnight, but that will conform to customers.

Juan Antonio "Tony" Larrea, president of the board of Caribbean Glaze Corporation, and other members of the management team were located within the premises to enjoy the expressions of people who proved their flagship glace hot doughnuts.

Larrea said that a pregnant waited long hours for a craving for bagels before continuing its journey to the hospital to give birth.

Lillian Cosme arrived before 8 am after leaving their children in school. I have never tried to Krispy Kreme doughnuts, but gave him curious about the aggressive advertising of the company before the opening.

But not everyone was happy. A family of Guaynabo went empty-handed because they were tired of doing the row under the burning sun. "They should have employees outside the store selling to expedite the process," said one of the upset.

Happy Birthday

One of those was in the row of Krispy Kreme was Eva Rodriguez of Humacao. Yesterday was his birthday and even missed her husband Angel to accompany the work.

"My children and I tried one day that they were giving away at a traffic light in Hato Rey and loved us," said the woman who sang with doughnuts in the mouth as part of a contest of a radio station that inspired the event early in the tomorrow.

So Good You'll...[edit]

Would it be worthwhile to include the story about our local NBC affiliate that made accidental national news when its lazy graphics department did a story about Krispy Kreme and included this famous graphic?

Warm?[edit]

This article states: "Krispy Kreme sells doughnuts, among them glazed doughnuts, served warm. Krispy Kreme doughnuts are sold in supermarkets, grocery stores, convenience stores, gas stations, Wal-Mart and Target stores in the US; Loblaws supermarkets and Petro-Canada gas stations in Canada; and Tesco supermarkets and Tesco Extra in the UK" While no doubt KK donuts are best fresh and hot off the line, I guarantee you won't find them "served warm" in convenience stores, gas stations, etc. unless you take them out of the box or bag and pop them in a microwave (which isn't quite the same thing as fresh out of the fryer), so this paragraph is somewhat inconsistent with reality.
