Xbox And Krispy Kreme Team Up Again, Creating Forza Doughnuts

Ew. Krispy Kreme donuts are not good. Yes i do realize i am going to get hate for saying that... But i stick behind what i said and i firmly believe that the company makes gross donuts that are not worth the hype and money...

God why couldn't they keep brownie filling instead of that vile raspberry.

@OliverOwen when you get given 4 boxes by a delivery supplier for free however because they ordered too much stock, it is definitely worth it.

@Resi32 That is the only exception in which i would choose to eat them.

I remember when Krispy Kreme started building out and I started seeing them. Then they vanished again and were in some supermarkets. Now I think they're reduced to a plexiglass case in a particular gas station chain and that's the only place you'll see them. Yuck.

Then again, Dunkin's not what it used to be either, mostly factory made donuts, smaller than ever, less variety than ever, and while they have the familiar flavor, it definitely feels like it's a much more shallow flavor than when they used to actually make them in the stores. Heck, they dropped the name "donuts" from the name "Dunkin' Donuts" because they're really just a coffee chain now that happens to have a few donuts on hand.

...At least it's still better than Starbucks, eh, @SplooshDmg?

Wonder where good donuts are these days. KK doesn't exist outside gas statoin boxes, Dunkins' downhill. Supermarkets have that weird supermarket donut that always tastes the same as all other supermarket donuts....

They're available in Ireland too. The Xbox ones were delicious last time.

@SplooshDmg I wasn't near any of the Amish stuff but used to go to that area around here now and then. Used to love that. It's still there, behind the dumpsters for the Target and Panera on one side, and the massive strip mall with Bed Bath and Beyond, and all the stores you'll find in every other strip mall on the other side as they build it out into a "premier retirement community for rich retirees to live in low tax low cost of living area" (I.E. build it up and turn it upscale into the same high priced nightmare they left, after they die off. The Amish should just Google how to get with the times.)

I'm jealous. Here we get Dunkin, gas station Krispy Kreme (shipped in frozen) supermarket...and.... that's it. There's some bakery that charges like $3.50+ a donut. I'm sure they're decent if you're one of the lawyers that works near all the lawfirms around it. In reality they're probably frozen Krispy Kremes rebranded and upcharged because the lawyers are morons who will buy anything priced expensive to stroke their egos.

I'm so totes jelly of where you are. You probably can leave your own street in less than 7 minutes, as you wait for endless gridlock and 2+ lights go get out. I remember when it was like that here 20 years ago.

@TryToBeHopeful Yuck, you can have it all! But hey, clearly there is a market for products like that and people like them. I guess you could say the same about Circus Peanuts and how much i love those but most people hate them.

@SplooshDmg Yeah I told you about the "11 minutes to the shopping district" that Google Maps shows, which is insane. Leaving this street takes 7+ minutes at the light. They expect another 4 to get from here to there? With like 10 more lights in the way and everyone traveling from the same place to the same place at any time?

They "solved" the problem by turning all the 4 lane roads into 6-lane roads with teeny tiny lanes and no room for error while everyone loves speeding and weaving without a care. And of course it still takes 20-40 minutes no matter what Google thinks, which is clearly unaware of the existence of traffic lights....

Funny though, I was just saying to someone the other day that the difference between the rich and hillbillies is almost impossible to spot. You'd think people lighting constant fireworks would be a hillbilly thing, but no, that's a rich people thing apparently. Never used to have a problem with it. Then 4th of july started sounding like a warzone. Then newyears. Then memorial and labor day. Now it's just random Wednesday nights all year long, and sometimes during the day.

I swear there must be a fair trade organic free range moonshine holler around here, accessible only by electric pickup truck.

@SplooshDmg I'm so beyond jealous. I honestly don't intend to ever go anywhere unless I'm forced to. Theres work, home, and Amazon. Nothing else exists. The world is an empty void containing nothing else worth attempting to access. Attempting just leaves me exhausted, raging, and depressed all at once. We're not into 10 lanes yet unless you include turn lanes, but after 6 lanes everywhere fully packed at all times what I don't understand is how anyone can tolerate going anywhere ever. They do... They don't seem to mind, and I don't understand how.

So even hillbillies don't like blowing stuff up like rich people do.... Interesting. The big ones are bad enough, and then there's the big booms that shake the earth, and house. It's surreal. It's illegal but Barney Fife is still looking for Jolly Pirate and can't be bothered. So it's absolutely everywhere. On the 4th you need rear protection to be outside. Hours of non-stop explosions.

Ooh I liked the last Xbox donut they did with brownie filling. I'll hopefully get a hold of these at some point. Though they're so damned expensive I won't be getting the Dozen. Though I have eaten a dozen donuts by myself before

So these are £6.35 a box of 3 or 2.35 each. They can absolutely do one.
