Krispy Kreme coming to Japan!

Look out Mr. Donut! Trouble is coming your way:
Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Inc. said it will open the first stores in Japan as the second-largest U.S. doughnut maker tries to boost international sales and return to profitability.
A Yahoo article reveals that we can expect Krispy Kreme locations to invade the Tokyo area:
Krispy Kreme’s development agreement with Krispy Kreme Doughnut Japan Co., Ltd. calls for the development of approximately 40 locations over the next five years in the Greater Tokyo area, with the first location scheduled to open in Tokyo in the fall.
I don’t care what you annoying fat people say; I’ll take Mr. Donut over that ultra-fatty sugar-coated Krispy Kreme crap any day.
Update: CBC News has a story today about Japan’s junk food obsession: check it out!

I’ve never tried Krispy Kreme (having lived in Japan for the last 16 years) but I didn’t think the fame of the doughnuts was about how sugary and fatty they were but about freshness. A big deal is made about getting the doughnuts while they’re still warm.
Is Mr. Donut any less sugary and fat-laden than Krispy Kreme? I think they’re all pretty devastating to your blood sugar.

I am not sure about the nutritional facts for Krispy Kreme, but when I eat one, I can literally feel the thick fat in them. Mr. Donut donuts actually have a taste beyond ‘thick and fatty’, which almost makes me think they are healthier.

I’m with kurt on this one. Misdo is like dog crap compared to KK. In fact the owners and staff of misdo should commit ritual suicide on the day of the first KK opening.
