Krispy Kreme versus Dunkin Donuts: who wins donut wars?
March 9, 2023
J. Sterling Morton East Students prefer Krispy Kreme donuts over Dunkin’s Donuts.
Sugar is one of life’s greatest indulgences, it’s the most craved food in the world and seems nearly impossible to live without. Here at the J. Sterling Morton East High School, students seem to have an extreme infatuation with doughnuts. No one can blame the students here at Morton about their craziness for something sweet, especially when that sweetnessis satisfied by doughnuts. When people consume doughnuts, do they have a preference to the type, freshness, or brand? Krispy Kreme donuts are light, airy and essentially melt in your mouth, while dunkin makes theirs a bit thicker and denser, almost like bagels. It’s no joke that these two places have yummy donuts, and so it was my mission to figure out which one students preferred the most? In a random survey of 100 students that attend Morton East, only 20 prefer Dunkin. With this information I was able to gather feedback on what differentiates both places when it comes to their yummy donuts.
“When someone mentions Donuts I instantly think of Krispy Kreme, I love how they pack them while theirs still warm and soft, overall they just seem fresher than Dunkins.” Senior classmate Genesis Pereyra mentioned.
It’s no secret that when you purchase a Krispy Kreme’s original glazed donut, it melts into your mouth like cotton candy, and clearly people seem to love it’s softness.
“I used to love Dunkin when I was younger, but once I tried donuts from Krispy Kreme, I instantly changed my mind, Dunkins donuts are put on display the whole day, which makes them kind of denser, in other words I feel like it loses it’s freshness.” Senior classmate Samantha Acosta mentioned.
Interestingly, many people seem to be bothered by how Donuts from Dunkin don’t stay warm and fresh throughout the day, due to how they are put up on display for customers to see.
“I mainly go to Dunkin, just cause I love their coffee and munchkins, also because it’s closer to where I live and the nearest Krispy Kreme is in Hillside which is still a bit far for me.” Senior classmate Sandra Solis stated.
Others don’t consume donuts elsewhere due to it’s location, and Cicero does have a Dunkin in every corner which give the students here at Morton go for a quick and fast stop.
“Prefiero las donas de Krispy Kreme, es todo lo que tengo que decir.” Brandon Virto (Brother) mentioned.

I can confidently say that Krispy Kreme donuts are better than Dunkin’s donuts. Every single time I have been to Krispy Kreme I have never been disappointed, it does not matter at what time of day I go the donuts are always so fresh, light and airy. While my trips to Dunkin have not always been the best. I can say that Dunkin’s donuts are not always fresh, you may get lucky if you go early in the morning but if you go no later than noon you may be disappointed. The last few times I have been the donuts were dry and not fresh, this is why I prefer Krispy Kreme’s donuts.

Genge- I would vote for Krispy Kreme donuts because like it mentioned in the article it say “I love how they pack them while theirs still warm and soft” which is true. Dunkin is good but the donuts don’t come out warm or soft

Genge- I do agree with this article because Krispy Kreme donuts are very soft and fluffy its almost satisfying to eat. Dunkin is delicious as well but something about a fresh warm soft fluffy donut with a warm drink is just amazing!

Genge- Me personally I would vote on Krispy Kreme donuts because as mentioned in the article it says “Krispy Kream donuts are light, airy, and essentially melt in your mouth” which is very true in my opinion. I do agree also that Krispy Kream is farther then where I live so I do not really have it often but that does not make me go to dunkin for a quick donut.

i think its the same for me i feel like i love krispy kreme much more then dunkin. the reason for that iss that i love the way it tastes in my mouth when the original glazed donut melts in my mouth. i love how they added in that they love krispy kreme much more but its the location that draws them away from it.

Genge- I agree with this article because I also perfer krispy kreme over dunkin like most of the students surveyed, I just think dunkin donuts’s donuts are too dense and krispy creme’s are more enjoyable to eat.
