not just the sugar is a problem -

Glaze also may contain: Calcium carbonate, disodium phosphate, and sorbitan monostearate.

Amazing to see those companies that have BK/folded in the States still making it in Japan, a la Krispy Kreme, Cold Stone, Tower Records, et. al.,...

"Glaze may also contain: Calcium carbonate"

Heck, that's good for you! Good stomach-settling stuff!

My taste buds are ready for the chocolate invasion. As for Tokyotom's question ... no, there are no lines stretching "across the bridge" anymore at the Shinjuku plaza location. That is one of the places I usually chow down on my doughnuts & iced lattes ... and I haven't had to deal with a long line in ages. At the most, a handful of customers in front of me ... five minutes wait at most ... The same holds true at the Yurakucho site ... Krispy Kreme's first outlet in Japan.
