Hey, this one has a hole in it...

What the hell is up with Krispy Kreme? I'd love to argue about the benefits vs. the downside of it all... But it's a donut. who argues about donuts besides cops and gluttons?




Yeah, it's a donut. It's sweet. It doesn't taste bad. But goddamn... Php 30 each?!? That much for a fried piece of rolled dough with melted sugar on top. For carb-counters out there, that's about 12g of different sugars in each donut. That's just the sugars... The dough itself? Well legend (the urban kind and office mate HornyTiu) says that it'll take 14 days for you to chew, ingest, digest, break down and crap all that stuff out. 2 freaking weeks inside you before it vacates your system in the usual way.


Although if you're like me and hate the oiliness of donuts in general, then you might just puke out the whole mess anyway.

Is it worth it though? You can get the same quality (low?) of food at Gonuts or the much maligned HotLoops franchise. (Yes, hotLoops is still in business even though no one knows what it is). Hell Dunkin Donuts Bavarian Munchkins are good enough for me any day.



Spending PhP 30.00 on a single donut is ludicrous to me though...

PhP 30.00 will get you a cheeseburger at Jollibee. That'll last you a day.

PhP 30.00 will get you 3/4 liter of shell Unleaded. That's halfway from home to work.

PhP 30.00 will get you a Ps2 Game/DVD Movie/TvSeries. Hours of fun and enjoyment.

PhP 30.00 can get you a longganisa with 1 rice plus soup and a fried egg in your usual JollyJeep in Makati. Yum! (you gotta try this)

PhP 30.00 will... well... it'll get you a lot more than a piece of fried dough with a hole in the middle.

Is it worth it? Hell no! So why the hell did I just agree to go there on Saturday?

Because Patti wants to.

Can't argue with that...
