Chocolate especially, seems really grainy with too much sugar and not enough cocoa.

However North Carolina USA Based Krispy Kreme is quite successful in Japan as it is in the states. I still remember the lines when they launched. They aren't bad, but I don't have much of a sweet tooth...
Dunkin Donuts should be a fail boat every where ever they go. Their coffee is just not good either. The North East of the States are just plastered with them and their commercials with John Goodman just annoyed me.
