Krispy Kreme Kraze is over

There's been a lot in the media lately about the apparent demise of Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

A year ago I was elated at the news these tasty treats were making their way to Canada. (I became addicated to them while working as a reporter in Washington, DC.) But it now looks like the chain's best days are behind them. They're about to default on a $150-million credit line, and stores have been closing.

This was unthinkable even a year or two ago. Just goes to show how fickle the modern consumer market can be. I gave up Krispy Kreme because I was putting on too much weight, but still indulge in an iced-cream filled doughnut or two once in a while. I can't resist.
