It's the reason Dunkin' Donuts is now just Dunkin'. B/c their donuts are cake "donuts," and can't legally be referred to as donuts around me.

You probably are getting cake donuts.

Where are you from? Can you find a Krispy Kreme with their light on?

Also, here is an interactive map if you live within 60 miles of Raleigh, NC.
I'm in NZL. Auckland Airport has a Krispy Kreme, but yanno... it's Auckland.

No chance an airport Krispy Kreme is making them on site, so fuck that.

I don't really eat junk food, but someone just told me about this place. Might have to make an exception.
