Okay, this has to be the most disgusting concept in food yet. I've never liked Krispy Kreme donuts, I find the texture is nasty.
"Drinking those cool Krispy Kremes
Doughnut retailer unveils frozen beverage line, including a glazed-flavored drink."
Glazed flavored? GLAZED?!! To me, the most awful thing in the world is a cold glazed donut. And why would I want to drink a glazed flavored drink, much less a cold one?
'President and CEO Scott Livengood said in a statement.
"We feel our expanded beverage offerings will provide tremendous growth opportunity for both the company and the Krispy Kreme brand,"'
Not to mention waistlines all over the country. Who thinks this is a good marketing idea? It sounds so disgusting. Is this a joke?
We are constantly bombarded by statements about how Americans are getting fatter (Yes, I'm guilty of that) but even so, I'm amazed that this kind of thing would sell. What's next? Lard shakes?
