Overpriced food, well you'll see more than your share of non-smiling faces when a KK first opens and people find out they get to pay double or more what it costs at their current favorite place to be a part of the mania. NOT! Here's the score: Krispy Kreme $1.46. Local Mom and Pop $1.93! Krispy Kreme wins by .47!!!!!!!!!!! This price is based on two glazed doughnuts and a medium coffee. By the way, Krispy Kreme gives you 12 ounces of coffee. Mom and Pop? Well, they only give you nine. Yeah, but what about the quality of the two products? You get what you pay for don't you? Not with my local Mom and Pop, you don't. Krispy Kreme is soooooo much better a direct comparison is totally unfair. Poor ol' Mom and Pop must change their frying oil once a year whether it needs it or not. And I'm pretty sure Pop's cutting costs by filtering his coffee through his underwear. That's the end of my local market research involving eating substandard fare. Quality matters. I won't stoop so low as to buy donuts and coffee from the local supermarket. If you have the courage to eat some other doughnut than a Krispy Kreme, you have my admiration - and my pity. CC
