I completely missed the Krispy Kreme kraziness and now the franchise has all but disappeared in these parts. Back in 2001 I read and heard all about the lineups outside Krispy Kreme stores in the GTA. People were going nuts for these donuts and it was a pretty big local story. I never got to a Krispy Kreme to see what all the fuss was about.
That was almost seven years ago, and now I realize I never did get to a Krispy Kreme shop. I hit the web to see where these stores were, and the only one close to Toronto is an outlet on Mavis Road in Mississauga. All the others have closed.
Once again, I completely missed a big buzz frenzy.
