Krispy Kreme divests remaining stake in Insomnia Cookies for $75m
Global doughnut chain Krispy Kreme has completed the sale of its remaining stake in Insomnia Cookies to the cookie company and certain shareholders. The company has received aggregate cash proceeds of $75m from the transaction, which will allow for debt reduction after covering transaction-related fees and expenses. Krispy Kreme CEO Josh Charlesworth stated: 'We continue to take swift, decisive action to de-leverage our balance sheet and drive sustainable, profitable growth.' 'This is an important step as we focus on our two biggest opportunities: profitable US expansion and capital-light international franchise growth. We wish Insomnia Cookies and their ownership group well as they work to realise the full potential of this unique brand.' In July 2018, Krispy Kreme acquired a majority stake in the US-based bakery Insomnia Cookies. It was also agreed that both companies will continue to operate independently going forward. In July 2024, Krispy Kreme divested a majority ownership stake in Insomnia Cookies to investment firms Verlinvest and Mistral Equity Partners, valuing the enterprise at $350m - a significant increase from its value at the time of Krispy Kreme's initial acquisition. The sale had brought Krispy Kreme a total of $127.4m, with an additional $45m after Insomnia Cookies' refinancing of intercompany debt. Krispy Kreme stated at the time that it planned to use these proceeds to enhance its fresh doughnut business, expand availability and further pay down debt. The doughnut giant would retain a 34% minority shareholding in Insomnia Cookies. Evercore and Morgan Stanley & Co acted as financial advisors in the transaction in 2024. In January 2025, Krispy Kreme announced leadership team changes to drive growth and expand its capital-light international franchise model.

New nationwide study ranks best and worst fast-food fries in America
CHICOPEE, Mass. (WWLP) – In a new ranking based on tens of thousands of customer reviews, one fast food chain has officially been crowned the king of fast-food fries in America. Federal minimum wage would rise to $15 under Sen. Hawley bill The study, conducted by Seating Masters, analyzed over 40,000 Yelp reviews mentioning fries across 21 major fast-food chains. In-N-Out topped the list with an average rating of 3.86 out of 5, based on 7,595 reviews across 25 locations. The California-based chain's fresh-cut fries, prepared in-store daily, garnered the highest praise from customers–despite its limited geographic footprint compared to national giants. Shake Shack claimed second place with a 3.7 average from 17,018 reviews across 45 locations. The chain's crinkle-cut fries, which were temporarily removed from the menu in 2013 and brought back due to popular demand, have since regained favor among customers. Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers rounded out the top three with a 3.59 rating, based on 2,396 reviews at 47 locations. Known for its thin, crispy shoestring fries, Freddy's earned high marks for flavor and texture. Bojangles, a Southern regional favorite, landed in fourth with a 3.51 rating, while Chick-fil-A followed in fifth place with 3.4. The chicken chain's waffle fries, beloved for their dippable design and crispy bite, continue to be a standout menu item. Raising Cane's, Zaxby's, Arby's, Hardee's, and Checkers/Rally's completed the top 10 list. Notably, Arby's curly fries helped secure its eighth-place finish with a 2.89 average rating. Top 10 Fast-Food Chains for Fries: In-N-Out Burger – 3.86 Shake Shack – 3.7 Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers – 3.59 Bojangles – 3.51 Chick-fil-A – 3.4 Raising Cane's – 3.24 Zaxby's – 2.98 Arby's – 2.89 Hardee's – 2.86 Checkers/Rally's – 2.84 On the opposite end of the spectrum, KFC was rated the worst for fast-food fries, earning an average of 1.77 from 175 reviews across 50 locations. Despite its status as a fried chicken powerhouse, the chain's side offering left much to be desired, according to customer feedback. In a surprising result, McDonald's–the brand long synonymous with fast-food French fries–ranked second to last with a 1.91 rating from 1,381 reviews. Burger King followed closely behind with a 1.92 average from 623 reviews, reinforcing ongoing criticism of its fries despite repeated recipe overhauls. Church's Chicken and Popeyes also found themselves in the bottom five, scoring 1.9 and 2.0,8, respectively. Bottom 5 Fast-Food Chains for Fries: KFC – 1.77 McDonald's – 1.91 Burger King – 1.92 Church's Chicken – 1.9 Popeyes – 2.08 The study looked specifically at reviews that mentioned fries and aggregated data from various locations nationwide to provide what it calls the most comprehensive snapshot to date. While chains like McDonald's and Burger King may dominate in scale, it's the regional favorites and quality-focused brands like In-N-Out that are winning over fry lovers with freshness, flavor, and consistency.
