girlscouts.orgGirl Scout cookie season, also known as the only reason we choose to live anymore (kidding, we also love our cats), is right around the corner. Not only can (certain) markets order cookies online, but we're getting two new Girl Scout cookie flavors! Exciting, right?
Sure, until you read the descriptions and you realize that they'll never beat Thin Mints, or whatever your favorite cookie is if it's not Thin Mints although that makes you a real dumb-dumb.
However, we're sure lots of you will find one of these cookies appetizing:
Rah-Rah Raisins
"Made with whole grain oats, these new hearty oatmeal cookies are packed with plump raisins and Greek yogurt-flavored chunks. An addition worth cheering about this cookie season!"
Snap judgment: This cookie has fruit in it. You should all know by now how we feel about cookies that have healthy stuff in it. It's an oatmeal raisin cookie, basically, and that's a cookie you grab on accident because you thought it looked like a chocolate chip cookie. Also, Greek-yogurt chips? C'mon.
Toffee-tastic
"Indulgently rich, buttery cookies with sweet, crunchy golden toffee bits. A gluten-free variety offered only in select Girl Scout council markets for as long as supplies last."
Snap judgment: This is more our speed. We wish more stuff had toffee bits in it because toffee bits are freakin' delicious. And the "as long as supplies last" make these cookies sound mysterious, alluring and unique. We want them because we know they'll run out. Damn you and your stupid mind games, Girl Scouts of America!
What do you guys think of the new flavors? Better bust out your maternity sweatpants that you wear even though you aren't and maybe never were pregnant, because it's time for Girl Scout cookie season! Bring on the sleeve-of-Thin-Mints-a-day habit we have so desperately missed.
