If you live near a Krispy Kreme store and eat them regardless of how bad they are for you(I do),

there's a SALE this Saturday in honor of the 76th Anniversary.
One dozen for 76¢ when you buy a dozen. (Check with your local store to be sure.)

What's special about the 76th anniversary?
Who cares?

Unleash the health trolls.

But I occasionally buy them, regardless.

Mrs. Laelth thanks you for this info., btw. She is determined to take advantage of the offer.

I note that the quality of their products was much better before the company went public. They were an excellent, closely-held corporation.

I'd feel too guilty about you having to subsidize my health bill by being in my insurance pool.

* What a buddy of mine refers to as Dunkin' Donuts.

My guess is the kitty in your GIF (which I still love BTW) got into some Krispy's.

Don't forget the three slices of bacon and extra cheese, of course!

(This is what I get for reading this while Man v. Food is on. Now I'm hungry, and everything looks edible!)

I would pick them up hot for everybody when on vacation at the beach.
I could almost eat a whole box when driving back. They are so easy to eat when they are right out off of the line.

Are either at Pier 39 where the tourists go, or at AT&T ball park, meaning that if you want them, you either have to wade knee deep in tourists or pay 8 plus bucks for a baseball game.
