[Bush_Eats_Beef]

...once you get HOOKED, they GO AWAY FOR ANOTHER YEAR!

DAMN the peanut butter sandwich cookies! DAMN the thin mints!





:evilgrin:

[ScreamingMeemie]

1. They don't give enough money from each box back to the troop, which

is why they don't get my money. Okay, well maybe one box of thin mints. :hi:

[barackmyworld]

2. dude, Samoas

*dies*

[ET Awful]

7. The little beasts don't call them "Samoas" anymore, they tried to

throw us off the track by renaming them to "Caramel deLites".

I'm on to their game though.

[BOSSHOG]

3. 12 boxes of thin mints each year

I stick em in the freezer and take one out each month.

[mcscajun]

13. What a brilliant idea?

I never would have thought of freezing boxed cookies of any kind.

Hmmmmmm…where's that Girl Scout?

[BOSSHOG]

19. They are delicious

right out of the freezer. The only problem I have is once the box is opened the cookies disappear pretty fast. Its an exercise in self discipline, which I fail on a monthly basis. The thin mints are the only ones I freeze and I think they are exceptionally good ice cold.

22. I'd always freeze at least one box of thin mints....

then get them out in September for my birthday. Very difficult to leave them there that long. I agree with you, they are even yummier frozen.

4. Interstate Baking

My hometown - Sioux City - just got another 250 good paying Union jobs in the metro area thanks to girl scout cookies. That is where they are made. So eat up, even if all the money doesnt go to the girl scouts, they also pay Union wages in making them.

9. Hey, that makes me feel good about eating girl scout cookies again

If I can support good union workers at the same time then I'll have to buy more! hmmmm....Thin mints...tagalongs...drool

5. Sometimes it sucks being a Canadian

You'd all miss the cookies.

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

8. Cookies are banned in Canada?!?

:shrug:

[yvr girl]

11. We don't have the same Girl Guide cookies

They sell one type in the spring and one type in the fall.

[mcscajun]

14. Well, they're not supposed to do this but…

…some Girl Scout troops were for a time selling their cookies on the Internet. (Does that sound kinky, or what?) That was before the Girl Scout national leadership cracked down on the practice.

Now the best you'll find is phone numbers on the websites where you can call if a Girl Scout hasn't visited you to solicit your cookie order.

BUT -- if you truly must have Girl Scout Thin Mint Cookies, there are three ways to go about it:

Buy from www.ebay.com -- there are almost always lots for sale, including most varieties.
Buy a substitute: Keebler's Grasshopper Fudge Cookies
Make 'em yourself from a copycat recipe: http://www.topsecretrecipes.com/recipes/thinmint.htm

[ET Awful]

6. And what the HELL were they thinking renaming Samoas and confusing

poor junkfood junkies like me. Caramel deLites. . . :wtf:

BUT, the new Iced Berry Pinatas are pretty tasty :)

[bleedingheart]

10. I am $48 dollars poorer as a result of those gals...

but my family is delighting in those goodies!!!

12. WOULD YOU LIKE SOME GIRL SCOUT COOOOOKIES?!??!

Sorry it is geocities (only image I could find of it)

[mcscajun]

15. Preliminary search on eBay turned up 272 listings

of Girl Scout Cookies (and related items) at auction or for Buy It Now purchase. :)

Thin Mints -- Yippee!!!

[fluffernutter]

16. DAMN those new Double Dutch ones too!

i figured out the secret ... live next door to the cookie dealer :9

[immoderate]

17. Are Girl Scout Cookies made from real Girl Scouts?

Sorry, old joke (unless you haven't heard it yet.)
