Of Krispy Kreme

Was grocery shopping at Hyvee this afternoon when I passed by an aisle and saw this:


Krispy Kreme - Original Glazed Doughnuts. One Dozen. USD6.49
After listening to so much people raving about it, I was naturally VERY curious. Was it REALLY as good as so many people had raved about?
I bought the one dozen box. There were a half dozen one. But then with so many people raving about it, one dozen should be finished pretty soon, right? At least I thought so la.

Looks pretty good huh?

Well, I must admit that it does look pretty good. Much better than most of the other doughnuts I had before.

Ooh la la. My finger looks good too.

Taking it with my hand, I kind of felt a surge of anticipation. Here comes the moment...

One big bite later

Half expecting to see a rainbow appear behind a fountain with dolphins jumping around in the far away ocean, and wings suddenly pop out of my back - I stood there munching the doughnut.

And still I munch and wait for that "Oh, so awesome it rocks my whole body!" sensation.

And still I munch.

And nope. No rainbow. No fountain. No dolphins. No wings popping out. And no "Oh, so awesome it rocks my whole body" sensation.
I guess it must be the over-expectation I had for it. After all, the hype about Krispy Kreme doughnuts has been pretty crazy, at least from what I have read.
Still, I think it is kind of over-rated.

Well, I will probably be cursed till death by the time Da Jie finished reading this.
But yeah, I would have to say that it is kind of over-rated.
I would rate it at not bad.
And not super awesome, crazy tasting.

Krispy Kreme - Original Glazed Doughnuts. Not bad.
