Now, I love a nice hot Krispy Kreme as much as anyone - they're amazing -- when they're hot. Now, once they're not hot - they're a pretty pedestrian donut, as are the other varieties of not-hot-off-the-conveyer-belt-just-emerged-from-the-frosting-waterfall types. For "regular" donuts I'd much rather go to Rainbow Donuts.
So, in general I'd give Krispy Kreme a 4. Now this particular Krispy Kreme gets a 3 because that "hot now" light - you know; the one that lets you know that you CAN get the best donut ever - well, that light don't mean jack at this Krispy Kreme. They leave it on for HOURS after they shut down the magic-maker and keep passing out the donuts - hot, then warm, then cool, then cold - the light keeps on shining bright. LET HER BURN! So, you never know if you're getting the real deal.
RESPECT THE LIGHT, KRISPY KREME!
