I like their chicken fried steak biscuit. Nobody does barbecue or chicken fried steak like N.C. My DH, OTOH, doesn't "get" what all of the fuss is about. He thinks Popeye's biscuits are waaay better.

Have you tried FED EX? When I lived in Texas I had pizza fedexed to me from New Jersey.

There's no reason why you can't import a little of your favorited from anywhere in the world. It's just going to cost a little bit and maybe not quite as good. But it will be good enough!

Settle? No way no how.

Have to agree about the donuts at DD, how can like 30 types of donuts all taste the same?!?!?

And the hot Krispy Kremes are to die for.

But, I firmly believe that at DD it's all about the coffee...

DD donuts are all about timing, you have to go first thing when they are made (at a real DD store, not the one where they are shipped to). But unfortunately sitting out for 12 hours makes it the equivalent of sugar coated cardboard. The coffee yes, is good, in that it's consistent across the chains.

Krispy Kremes, are unreal. There is something addictive in them I swear (beyond sugar)
While I like them, they scare me because each donut is like 500 calories or something

Theworst part is the samples... they give you a whole donut as a sample, then you bring home 2 boxes since it is 2 for the price of 1, and you say you will freeze a box, but you never do!!!!
