It pains me to see Krispy Kreme in trouble.
In Raleigh we lived just up the block from one of the original shops, and many a latenite excursion ended behind the brightly lit neon advertising just-baked donuts. (Their secret? Potato flour.)
But how do you chart the rise of a donut empire in a nation obsessed with looking like Kate Moss, whom, according to the Family Guy, can slip between cracks in the floor? It's been tough going since KK went public a few years back (story), and now there's another shakeup (see story here.)
I have to say I broke the habit myself. Maybe it's that they're just too good!
