For two weekends in a row last month, we brought home Krispy Kreme donuts. We stayed away from it for a long time because we all know how sweet their flavors are but at that time, we gave in to those tempting treats. When we brought a box home and had some for breakfast the following day, I munched into something ‘rubbery’.
I spat it out of course and realized that it was a thumb-size portion of what looks like a latex glove! What I did is to put it in a zip-lock bag and decided to bring it to the store at Macquarie Center, here in Sydney. Along with friends, we went to the store and the lady there initially offered KK vouchers, which I declined to get. What if the rest of the donuts have the remaining portion of the “latex glove”? Hah!
So, she said that she’ll bring the “sample” to their head office and promised to call me back. It’s been over a month now and still, there was no call. I know it’s not as alarming as seeing a dead ant, fly or rat on the donut. But I feel that they could’ve done better in dealing with the problem.
So for now, goodbye Krispy Kreme.

Eeewww…that was disgusting!
Are you sure it was a latex glove though? Maybe they introduced “bubble gum” as one of their doughnut flavors – hahaha!
