Drooling for Doughnuts in Raleigh, North Carolina

Driving down the road, your mouth begins to salivate. You keep your eyes peeled for the slightest hint of a round, orange glow on the horizon: the Krispy Kreme “Hot Now” neon sign calling you from the windows. It only occurs once or twice a day, but if timed just right, you can indulge in one of the greatest confections of Southern culture. At that very moment, armies of freshly formed ring-shaped pillows are marching down the conveyor belt towards a waterfall of sugary-white glaze. From there, your treat is scooped up and hand-delivered for enjoyment of the melt-in-your-mouth goodness. The doughnut chain now exists all around the world, but the global phenomenon started here in Tarheel State. Experience it right, and your doughnut expectations will never be the same again.
