    I grew up on KK, and I'd easily take Shipleys unless we are just talking glazed.

    Living in Texas and loving the mountains, the answer is easily New Mexico. Santa Fe, Albuquerque or heck even Farmington.

    Even looking at the pictures I would still choose Shipley's. I can't believe there are people out there who don't like Shipley's, and even Whataburger. I guess you can't win them all.

    Oh, I live in Texas. I'd choose New Mexico, unless we can skip the Oklahoma panhandle, giving me a clear shot at Colorado.

    Yes. Just glazed. Hot off the line from KK is the best. Its like biting into a sweet glazed buttery heaven. Shipley's on the other hand has some of the best cake donuts around. Blueberry!

    Probably Maryland, because it's like a 20 minute drive and wouldn't be much different. :)

    Then again, I always though North Carolina seemed like a pretty good state to live. Nice beaches. Beautiful mountains. Several great colleges. Pro sports teams. Mild weather. Relatively low cost of living.

    As for the others, I would probably take Tennessee and Kentucky over West Virginia if I was forced to pick.

    Those shipleys look fresh and doughy

    Those Krispy kremer look rubbery and stale

    You speak the truth.

    And Shipley's donuts are the bomb. KK are for the Paula Deen deep south obesity crowd.

    1. Doughnuts aren't baked

    2. At Krispy Kreme you can watch them float on the cooking oil 1 minute before you eat them.

    On a positive note, the responses to this thread have made it easy to identify posters I will no longer bother reading.

    New Mexico is a state of trinkets.

    Oklahoma is meh.

    Ozarks area of Arkansas are maybe doable.

    Hard to beat cajun food.

    I'd rather stay here.

    My parents did, too. But the beauty of the state is not the determining factor, the people are. That's why we love Texas

    You make me move to a neighboring state, I'm sliding along the coast to Loisiana to remain in the South, unless I can get a dream cabin in the Ozarks.

    So Louisana for the people, Arkansas for the beauty.

    As for NM beauty, that's like saying Utah is beautiful. Which it is, but you can't really live amongst that. It's national parks.

    NM's Sante Fe is nice, and the mtns. I can see choosing that too. But I'll take Louisana it's closer to Houston!!!!
