Reason it failed is because in HK we can choose to eat quality and not deep fried cheap american garbage ....

Hong Kong folks don't eat 'deep fried cheap american garbage'?

Uh, what about the 200+ McDonald's joints there? Or all those KFCs and Pizza Huts?

I've actually eaten those doughnuts, and they are GOOD. And they were definitely worth the trip to HK, and the prices there. (Cheap, my rump.) Terrible loss. I hope Krispy Kreme has better luck in Beijing or Shanghai.
