I can see why if you grew up with Krispy Kremes you'd stand in a long line to get them if you hadn't had any in a while. I didn't, though. I think that glaze on their raised doughnuts is butterscotch flavored. Good, when warmed, though the doughnut is so lightsome that it seems almost to disappear in your mouth like cotton candy.

Oxnard's now got its Krispy Kreme midget factory. You can watch the doughnuts from raising box through glazing through boxing up and you can have Homer Price flashbacks.

I like old-fashioneds: solid, and good deep flavor. I used to strongly favor cake doughnuts but nowadays try for something a little less dense and therefore presumably less sugar at a time -- I'm eating more raised doughnuts these days. There are a couple of small chains around here, but I don't have a strong preference among the local doughnutiers. Back in 1970s South Dakota, Dunkin Doughnuts used to be it, but the competition is better now. And just as fattening.
