rivka - Aw, poor baby! Okay, you're not a spoiled brat, but everyone else is.
No idea, kq. No idea at all. If it has some kind of Halal-certifying stamp on it, it probably is. If it has no animal ingredients at all and no alcohol, then it is. But really, I'm not craving them that bad, and I'm off sweets, so I still couldn't have 'em anyway. I just like to whine. Posts: 8355 | Registered: Apr 2003

However, they are NOT kosher for Pesach (in less than three weeks), and they would not help me eat less junk.

I like the all-abouts and I am very tempted to try the ones that have lemon in them. I don't think I'd be very fond of the thin mints as in Planet V, mint and chocolate don't mix.

I've got a case of Samoas hidden from my husband. He's a junkie and he's turned on my 17 month old to them as well! I told him this had to last until next year and I'll ration them out to him! I did get an extra 2 boxes to take on vaction so he can have them in the car. Ain't I sweet! Oh! And any the baby eats count against his ration! Posts: 601 | Registered: Sep 2002

i don't know why anyone would buy girl scout cookies that aren't thin mints. thin mints are the fruit of the gods. my girlfriend always gets the caramel delights (samoans) and then i have to beat her (not really). my mom makes an excellent mint chocolate chip brownie that is like a thin mint on steroids. or maybe a thick mint.
THIN MINTS FOR PRESIDENT!

You only ordered one box?
I'll tell you a secret: Keebler Fudge Shop Grasshoppers are almost just like Thin Mints. And I think they're usually cheaper.

I don't really care for thin mints by themselves BUT in a millkshake, they are divine!! YUM.
(And since I missed the cookie sale this year, I think I'll try the Grasshoppers, thanks KQ, I've been craving a thin mint shake!)

My mommy sent me four boxes of cookies! Hooray Mommy!
Two of these boxes are Thin Mints. One is Samoas and the last is a box of those "Cafe Cookies." I don't know what they are, but they're cookies, so they're yummy.

My mommy sent me two boxes as well and my husband brought home two more. Each bought one each of my favorites -- Thin mints and Samoas. I am well loved.

I've never had a thin mint or a samoa.
I'm deprived.
Y'all are spoiled brats!
What about me! I never even get to eat the adulterated oreo girl scout cookies.
Chometz is forbidden for me 365.25 days a year, and not just during Pesach.

Girls Scout cookies are good, if a bit overpriced, but what I miss are the Campfire Girls' Candies. They used to sell these chocolate/mint log things that were to die for. Kind of like a long skinny york peppermint patty except with milk chocolate instead of the nasty dark stuff. MMMMmmmmm

Oh SHARPIE! Well, I guess no one is really perfect. I've just found your first flaw.
Well, that and preferring Diet Dr. Pepper at room temperature, but I was willing to overlook that one. Posts: 6394 | Registered: Dec 1999

Trefoils are a very nice cookie with a cup of coffee. But Thin Mints are the queen of all cookies.
They disappear so quickly in my house that I hid ours in an empty bag of frozen broccoli in the back of the freezer. No way the kid would look there for a snack!

I am the only person I know who doesn't like GS cookies. I can taste the trans fats. ( I even look every year, in the hopes they've jumped on the badwagon.)

Thin Mints are the absolute BEST when they've been frozen. Mmmm... I might have to go have a couple right now Posts: 3932 | Registered: Sep 1999
