Unpopular opinion: I've never understood the allure of Krispy Kreme. When that Hot Light comes on, people come out of the woodwork like moths to a flame. Don't get me wrong, a fresh Krispy Kreme is a pretty good donut. But I've eaten lots of fresh-out-of-the-fryer donuts that can hold their own with Krispy Kreme (or are better), and I didn't have to stand in line and fight off donut-hungry patrons like a pack of Black Friday shoppers at Walmart to get them!

Let's hope it doesnt come out that their CEO (gasp!) goes to church, or else NYC might give them the Chik fil a treatment.  :rolleyes:

Try living in the UK where their idea of D'nuts tastes like week old, moldy bread

I want to open a chick-fil-a in Victoria station.  Would make Millions.

Interesting. KK tried Times Square once before, about 20 years ago, but it went belly up pretty quickly.  They even had "celebrity" ownership in the franchise, including Jimmy Buffett, among others.

Chik Fil A is thriving in the most liberal cities in Murica.  Apparently most are not on board with the boycotts.
