I don't know what the big deal about Tim Hortons is. I'm not too sure about the doughnuts, because they just taste like.... doughnuts to me.

But their coffee is absolutely brutal - yet some people go bat**** over it. A cab driver even turned off his meter and gave me a free ride just so he could stop and get a Tim Hortons coffee, because there was one in the area. Beats me.... it's rancid.

I like donuts. There is no need for a war as long as I have deep fried, glaze, powdered sugar, cinnamon and sugar, cocaine, or chocolate deliciousness in frnt for my taking. I challenge any of you to a donut eating contest.

I dont know what happened with ya'lls version of KK, but the ones we had in St Louis were absolute Heaven. They would just melt in your mouth. They key of course was to get them hot at the store. If you wait and let them get cold, they are nasty. I can easily eat 2 dozen of them by myself. Let them sit for an hour or so and I cant even eat 2.

Growing up we had Dixie Cream, they were awesome. Dont know how they are doing now.

Everyone in Ohio is nuts over Krispy Kreme; they're just OFDs (O for ordinary) to me though. My elementary school sold doughnuts as a fundraiser when I was a kid. The just made the regular round plain sugar sprinkled kind. They were the best ever. I should write to my 6th grade teacher in Alaska and ask for the recipe. I’m sure its as simple as it gets.

Okay, Nash...I like you, but you should be hung drawn and quartered for this.

Please tell me you dislike Starbucks, it might relieve you of the quartering part.

Starbucks serves oily horse pi** flavored with rusty nails and No-Doze dissolved in paint thinner, not coffee.

I like donuts, but rarely eat one anymore. Best I ever had, and still love was at a bakery inside a grocery store in Hammond IN (Almiras in Van Tils). Yellow cake donut with a great chocolate frosting. I loved those damn things. Sometimes I would buy a dozen, put them in the freezer, and pull out two at night to thaw overnight for a great if less than nutrious breakfast.

Another great place that I still think about...B.E.E. school at NS Great Lakes. On the second deck they had a break room. You could get any kind of snack there. They had the big 5-inch diamere Bavarian cream-filled with powdered sugar. Just freaking amazing. IIRC it was a Vietnamese family that had the contract to supply those doughnuts. As for filled doughnuts, those were the best.

In the Navy, the only good use for KK's that we found was when it was time to secure the mess line the left over KK jelly fills made nice projectiles. When someone got hit, it looked like they got shot...strawberry jell all over them.

Diablo, seriously though, has anyone ever had homemade poatato donuts? MMM MMMM

But uh yeah, there will be donuts off all kinds, foot longs are thought thought to make or break a person in the eating contest.

I heard a bunch of hoopla about krispy kreme so I decide to try one. I mean after all, who the hell knows more about donuts than a Cop right? I was disapointed, the kreme glazed wasn't even as good as a Dunkin Donut glazed and their Chocolate donuts were simply oversweet dark confectionary sugar with no flavor.

As far as I am concerned Krispy Kreme is OK if there is no other choice besides the dolly madison crap but that's about it.
