Pre-Game Talk: Dunkin Donuts vs. Krispy Kreme

[garnetpalmetto]

I always see this take and I never understand it.

Sure, Dunkin's got more flavors. But with any of the ones that both Dunkin' and KK have, I will take the KK version. The texture of Dunkin's donuts always make me think they've been sitting out for a day or two. KK is just better.

Coffee though? I have it on good authority that Dunkin's is better, and I don't have a very refined palate for coffee and most of it tastes the same to me, so I have to go with the general consensus there.

Unfortunately, that authority is dead wrong. Dunkin's coffee is trash and regularly has the highest amount of quakers (unripened coffee beans that don't get weeded out before roasting which leads to unpleasantly bitter flavors in brewed coffee) that you can find in a commercial mass-market coffee.

I think their coffee is the reason New Englanders are so salty...

Can't believe so many posters are complaining about Double-D's. Kids these days.

Agree with @garnetpalmetto Never liked Dunkin's coffee. Tastes so average to me.

When I lived in NY years back, I stopped at one on the way to work one day and everyone was ordering a coffee and requesting it "light and sweet". It was probably 1/3rd cream, a ton of sugar and bland coffee. I think they just needed to hide the taste of the coffee.

I wouldn't go out of my way for DD or KK, but I'll eat either if someone brought a box or something.

Bill’s Donuts. But since I’m not getting that without an 8 hour drive I’ll pick Krispy Kreme.

My hat for tomorrow

I have a Charlotte Checkers hat that is this exact design from the front. Does this hat have the NHL logo on the back?
