Fans disappointed with the customized availability of doughnuts The fans of the show, however, were confused and disappointed with the availability of the themed doughnuts only in the vicinity of UK when the show was based in New York City.

Many fans showed their disappointment on social media as they commented on the preview post by Snackolator.

There was a complaint from one user. Here’s where the decision-making process is just confusing me. Friends was a major hit in the US (I know it’s popular elsewhere too, but really), so why is this exclusive to the UK?

I enjoy seeing all of these interesting tastes and foods, but it also makes me realize how much we are missing out on.

“I’m a huge Friends fan and I would have loved to see these donuts in a Krispy Kreme shop in the US,” wished a second user. In agreement with other users, a third person wrote, “UK? Why not New York City, bro?

“Can I get these shipped to the US?” inquired another. LOL,” another person wrote, “Why wouldn’t this distinctly American phenomenon be released in the United States? They despise us.
