Sprinkles exist solely to provide whimsy, and no self-respecting adult should be eating whimsical food. And that goes for rainbow sprinkles, chocolate sprinkles, bacon-flavored sprinkles, or whatever possible version of sprinkles you can dream up. It's hard to even call sprinkles "food." They're more like a cheap thrill for the visually jaded.
Face it: sprinkles are for 4-year-olds, Captain America, and people who don't realize food isn't supposed to taste like wax. They're the lazy man's decoration, superfluous at best and somehow always stale. This changes the whole point of a Krispy Kreme doughnut. They're supposed to be soft and doughy, not dry and prickly.
Doughnuts are perfectly capable of being self-contained. This is an important and useful feature for keeping things like custard and jelly from dripping all over the place. It also prevents waste, and helps keep your hands relatively clean. It's what you might call "effective food engineering."
But Krispy Kreme doesn't really see it that way. Consider the New York Cheesecake doughnut. It has a creamy cheesecake filling, cream cheese icing, and a mound of graham cracker crumbles on top. There's no way those crumbles could ever stay intact. They fall everywhere: on your clothes, in your car, maybe even in your hair. A little powdered sugar on a doughnut is one thing, but putting crumbles on top is just asking for trouble.
