The Big Doughnut Battle: Krispy Kreme Invades Dunkin' Donut's Turf

Will Krispy Kreme unseat batter behemoth Dunkin' Donuts, now that it has arrived in downtown Chicago, or will it have the Starbucks effect? (Instead of driving independent coffeehouses out of business, they actually boost business for everyone.) Personally, my money is on DD. KK doughnuts are good right out of the oven, but I hate that sweet glaze that goes over every doughnut, even the frosted ones. Too icky-sweet for me. Although you can't beat the glassed-in production area for voyeuristic interest.
