I Reached For A Krispy Kreme Doughnut To Get My Sugar High
Have you ever tasted a hot Original Glazed Krispy Kreme Doughnut? The originals are the best. They are light and fluffy and small enough such that you wouldn’t feel like you got a sugar overdose. The glazed icing on the doughnuts were a tad too sweet for my friend’s WH’s liking, but it was ok for me.
This is another sinfully delicious food that I really shouldn’t be eating too much.
Here’s the deal:
Fitness experts say that if you are in a fitness program and watching your diet, you are allowed to have one day a week (”sin day”) to eat whatever you want. The rationale is that with that, you will not start craving for junk food and go on a food binge. Of course you do not go and gorge yourself silly with junk food. You eat sensible portions of sinful stuff like a chocolate cake or a hot Original Glazed Krispy Kreme Doughnut!
The price I paid:
A single Original Glazed Krispy Kreme Doughnut can set you back by 200 calories, of which 100 calories come from fats alone.
To walk off 100 calories, I need to brisk walk on the treadmill for 100 minutes. Of course, who can just eat one doughnut alone right? C’mon! It’s THE Original Glazed Krispy Kreme Doughnut! So I ate two, but I did not walk for 200 minutes. Instead I went to the local grocery store to buy more food.
Deal or no deal:
No deal! I am not in a fitness program… so I do not need to stick to that one-sin-day-a-week timetable. I also had two doughnuts each day for three days in a row! I’ll detox next year. Oops that’s tomorrow!
Happy New Year everybody!
Bite This!

You like KK? It’s way too sweet. I tasted them while in Aust, not in the US.
Gila person, ordered so many different kinds just to try them out. Yes, I have sinned.
Just 2 weeks ago, while at Changi, saw people bringing in boxes of KK. Must be early Christmas gifts for the family and friends. LOL…

Tigerfish - glad u like it!
Keropok Man - I only like the originals. The others have too much creamy filling. Yeah… a little less sugar glaze on the originals might be better. I only have them once in a very very long while. They are too sinful.

I hear so much about this ‘Krispy Kreme’ maybe I am a little glad that we don’t have them here in T’dad :) The last thing I need is more sugary temptation :D :D :D

the original ones are definitely the only ones worth eating. hot off the “roller” is unbelievably good- i always look for the “hot” sign. can’t wait to eat a few back in LA!!!! and then detox. hahaha

It’s a good thing you are pregnant. You get to eat for two and you can always blame it on the baby.

TriniGourmet - You can run, but you cannot hide! Krispy Kreme will go to Trinidad one day!
I’ll make sure I eat two hot and fresh ones the next time! Oh… or should I eat more since I am eating for two? Guess I’ll stick with two cos I am not a policeman.
Thanks BuddingCook, I have officially lost my waist.
