The people of Minnesota appear to once again be without Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

A Minnesota college student who drove 270 miles to Clive, Iowa, every Saturday to buy up to 100 boxes of doughnuts and drive them back has been told to shut down his moneymaking gig by the doughnut giant itself.

Jayson Gonzalez, 21, would drive to the nearest Krispy Kreme roughly four hours away and pack his car full of boxes of doughnuts  -- which cost about $8 for a dozen glazed -- to then drive the four hours back and serve them to his Twin Cities-area customers.

Gonzalez, who studies accounting at Metropolitan State University in St. Paul, was about to make his 20th run to Clive, according to his Facebook page, when Krispy Kreme contacted him to tell him to "shut down operations."

"I bear some bad news," a post from Gonzalez's business Facebooks "Krispy Kreme Run Minnesota" reads. "Unfortunately the run for this Saturday will not be taking place, as I have been told I have to shut down operations. I figure it would come eventually, but it arrived early with the surrounding articles."
