haha Funny you mentioned that! I was in Boston a few weeks ago and made the same observation. A friend told me that was the case because Dunkin' Donuts is headquartered in Rhode Island so there are a lot of locations in southern New England.
Not every American grew up with Krispy Kremes, so I think a lot of the appeal has to do with nostalgia. The doughnuts aren't bad either.
I had no idea Tim Horton's was a doughnut chain - I always thought it was a cafeteria-style fast food place but then again I've never been.

Strangely enough. I have never tasted a Krispy Kreme doughnut or Tim Horton's. Seen quite a few TH's in Canada. Dunkin' Donuts pretty much has a monopoly around here. I strongly believe that Eastern Massachusetts has more Dunkin' Donuts per capita than any other place on earth. --- Dallen Timothy <dtimothy@...> wrote: > Off the border subject, I think Tim Hortons (the Canadian donut chain) is > better than Krispy Kreme!
