Krispy Kreme gears up for the Green Lantern


With DC Comics set to take center stage later this month with their own superhero movie offering, Krispy Kreme doughnuts surely took the time to work a partnership with Hal Jordan and his associates, and they come up with a limited edition flavor just for the occasion.

So, what makes a Green Lantern doughnut, you might ask? Their promotional poster was more than helpful in that regard.


How did it go? Well, to say the least, it DID have Hershey's chocolate, just not the whole doughnut as it sure seemed like when I was reading it out. There is a piece of Hershey's chocolate under the green jelly. In simpler terms, it is not as I had hoped it was. Then again, I might have been expecting too much for a promotional-only, movie tie-in doughnut which only aims to get sales mainly from the movie it is helping promote. Whew, that was long.


Special props to my good friend Peej Rainer for the pictures. You sir, are awesome.
