Crispy or Puffy?

Really, haven't we done enough to these people? Britney Spears, Coke and McDonalds, and now ... Krispy Kreme Donuts.



See that line. It snakes around a huge square. A sign warns of a 90 minute wait until donut nirvana. I've seen it at night, after work hours, dark and rainy, where the sign indicates it'll be more than two hours. Where's the UN when things like this happen?

I recently read an article in the Australian newspaper, the Age, which claims the new Japanese taste for American junk foods like Krispy Kreme will cause health problems. Duh! Really? And of course, since you waited for 2 hours, you might as well make it worth your while, so everyone who walks away does so with at least a dozen donuts, usually two or three.
