“We Were on a Break” from Deliciousness: US Fans Want Krispy Kreme’s “Friends” Doughnuts

Remember that time when Joey couldn't share his food? Well, get ready to feel the same frustration because Krispy Kreme just pulled a major "pivot" and left a giant hole shaped like a missing lobster in the hearts and stomachs of American fans!

Here's the deal: Back in June, Krispy Kreme announced on their UK and Ireland Instagram a limited-edition line of doughnuts inspired by the legendary sitcom "Friends." We're talking glazed masterpieces honoring Monica's cleanliness, quirky creations channeling Phoebe's artistic spirit, and maybe even a sweet tribute to Joey's legendary "How YOU doin'?" pick-up line. Basically, a sugary celebration of everything we love about the show!

But here's the twist that could rival Ross and Rachel's "we were on a break" drama - these Friends doughnuts are currently only available in the UK and Ireland! Seriously, Krispy Kreme? We Americans practically live and breathe reruns of Friends. We've memorized every catchphrase, cried over every heartbreaking goodbye, and cheered for every happily-ever-after. Heck, some of us even have apartments vaguely resembling Monica and Chandler's -minus the purple walls, hopefully.

The news of this limited, location-specific release has sent shockwaves through the American Friends fandom. Social media is exploding with disappointed fans voicing their outrage. Tweets like "This is worse than Ross finding out Emily was saying 'Rachel' at the altar!" and "Seriously, Krispy Kreme? You could BE any more inconsiderate!" are flooding the internet.

One particularly vocal fan, Sarah Miller from Chicago, expressed her frustration: "I mean, come on! I can practically recite the entire Thanksgiving turkey scene with Monica word-for-word. Wouldn't it be amazing to have a little, delicious, bready tribute to that moment? And don't even get me started on wanting a Joey-themed doughnut! Who wouldn't want that?"

So far, Krispy Kreme remains silent on the possibility of bringing these Friends doughnuts stateside. Maybe they're working on a secret recipe for a Chandler-sarcasm-infused filling, a true challenge, we admit!. Whatever the reason, fans are hoping Krispy Kreme hears their pleas for a taste of Central Perk goodness.

Maybe they're planning a surprise release? Maybe they're still working on the perfect recipe for a Chandler-sarcasm-flavored doughnut- that one might be a tough one!. Whatever the reason, here's hoping Krispy Kreme hears our cries for Friends-themed doughnut justice!

In the meantime, American fans will have to make do with Krispy Kreme's summer solstice deals. But let's be real, nothing beats celebrating Friends with a doughnut that perfectly captures the pure, unadulterated joy of Joey asking, "Could I BE any more excited?" So, Krispy Kreme, the pressure is on! Don't let your American fans down. We're waiting with rumbling stomachs for our chance to say, "PIVOT! Bring those Friends doughnuts to the US!"
