Krispy Kreme in Shinjuku

There's a branch of Krispy Kreme near the Takashimaya Times Square shopping center in south Shinjuku. Even though it was 12 degrees celsius and raining, people braved the cold and were lining up for what must be an hour to get into buy the treasured doughnuts. Looking at the quantity they buy, people buy three boxes at a time of maybe 10 doughnuts a box, probably dividing it up among friends and family -- "look I lined up and got these rare doughnuts!" I don't know if we'd be willing to wait in line that long for doughnuts in the US ..?
