Go ahead and cancel all your meetings, lock the door to your office, and put this one up on the big screen. To commemorate the delicious 75th anniversary of Krispy Kreme — which is today — WFAE’s video shows just how the Supreme Temple of American doughnuts makes those carbtastic treats.
From start to finish the process is totally automated and completely hypnotizing. A little tube spits out inner tubes of dough. Then the circular pastries ride a carousel where they’re baked to flaky golden perfection.

You’re going to want to keep that one on a continuous loop and have a trough handy to catch all the drool. Oh the marvels of modern machinery! [WFAE]
