274320 Mon Nov 28 14:26:03 -0800 2005 7 28 Kosher 0 1443869 I have heard a rumor that there one or more Kosher Kripsy Kremes in Las Vegas, but I have not been able to confirm this. Does anyone know of any? Thanks, David Mon Nov 28 14:26:03 -0800 2005 0 David 1 1443870 They all are kosher. Link: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2004/04/05/MNGM560JMC1.DTL Mon Nov 28 15:12:59 -0800 2005 1443869 0 DeisCane 2 1443871 But I don't totally trust this article. I have found no confirmation that there are kosher KK's in LV or, if so, what supervision they are under. There are no listings on Shamash or anything about them on the webistes for the shuls in LV. I don't believe that this article is lying, just that they might misunderstand what kosher means or have a dubious source. I am looking for someone who has been to a kosher KK in LV or knows someone who has. Thanks!

You can even buy any krispy kreme donuts at a gas station or convenience store. Tue Nov 29 13:11:34 -0800 2005 1443871 0 Abby 4 1443891 Krispy Kreme's ingredients are kosher, but not all locations are under supervision to insure kashrut. Also, KK used to use lard, so if an old location that used to use lard switched to the new batter the end product is still not kosher due to the non-kosher equipment unless it was kashered.

However, I just wanted to let people know that there are other reliable rabonim that hold that all Krispy Kreme donuts are ok, no matter where you purchase them.
