[pres2032]

[Deja Q]

4. Man, I forgot what it was like to get spanked!

Thank you! :loveya: :7

[shawcomm]

2. Those thin butter wafer cookies with the chocolate bottom.

mmmmmmm

[Left Is Write]

6. Those are the All Abouts.

Another excellent choice!

[Beaverhausen]

13. They sound good but they don't have them here

pout

[shawcomm]

19. Thank you! I couldn't remember what they were called.

Just know I love 'em.

[Warren Stupidity]

3. there is only one real gs cookie

it is the thin mint. The rest of them are late arrivals and are bogus. Of course that doesn't stop me from eating a box or two at a sitting.

[Left Is Write]

9. Well, no. The Trefoils were the original Girl Scout cookie.

That makes Thin Mints a late arrival also. ;)

[Kat45]

33. Yes, they were. And the Thin Mints were next.

When I was a Girl Scout in the sixties, there were only two kinds of Girl Scout cookies: Trefoils and Thin Mints. And I've loved those Thin Mints since then.

[Left Is Write]

5. I adore the Tagalongs.

[Sympleesmshn]

7. anyone remember the Samoas ice cream a few years ago

I loved it. They only sold it for a few months. What can be better then your favorite cookie in good ice cream?...

[Left Is Write]

10. Speaking of Samoas -

Can anyone remember if they ever went by another name? I have this vague recollection that the Samoas went by a different name and it was changed to Samoas a number of years ago.

Is this true or did I dream it?

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

12. No

They've been Caramel Delights for some areas and Samoas for others. It depends on where the local council gets their boxes from.

[Deja Q]

17. And, man, they are delightful! Lemme guess though,

"Caramel Delights" is the name used in the Southern States? :wow:

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

21. I live in Upstate NY... we have Caramel Delights

But the county next to ours has Samoas. :shrug:

[Left Is Write]

37. That must be it! I must have had them as Caramel Delights at some point.

[ChoralScholar]

35. I've noticed different bakeries have slightly different names.... EOM

[Sympleesmshn]

8. Repeat of above...

sry...

[Sporadicus]

11. Samoas Are Sublime

My all-time favorite Girl Scout cookie. If they've stopped making them - like I've heard - I'm gonna be pissed!
:mad:

[Sympleesmshn]

16. I hear that every year...

Maybe to get you to buy more?...

[Sporadicus]

18. Buying More Wouldn't Help My Situation

My consumption would increase in the same proportion to the increase in amount purchased.

[Sympleesmshn]

20. I know

That is why I didn't get any this year...:( I am trying to lose some weight, so no GS cookies for me...:cry:

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

14. I voted for the good, old Trefoils,

but I also like Tagalongs.

[driver8]

23. Trefoils have been my favorites since I was a little kid.

I love those cookies!

[Left Is Write]

36. They *are* good, aren't they?

I always buy a couple of boxes. My son had several this afternoon. He seems to like them better than any of the cookies with chocolate on them.

[Deja Q]

15. Okay, who spake in favor of 'Dahmers'?

And, let's cut to the chase, would you be interested in going out with me sometime? :7

[LSparkle]

22. Which are the peanut butter cookies?

They used to be called "Savannahs" but I don't know what they're called now.

[AlCzervik]

24. tagalongs n/t

[CBHagman]

25. I thought Savannahs were the peanut butter cream sandwiches.

I mean the cookies with no chocolate involved. The Tagalongs are chocolate-covered.

Do they even make those vanilla and chocolate sandwich cookies any more? Those used to be standard, along with the trefoil shortbread.

[tinfoilinfor2005]

31. They are called "Do-Si-Do's, Peanut Butter Cremes"

and I know this because I am sitting here pigging out on a sleeve of these as we speak. And, yes, Father forgive me for I am sinning...

[Sydnie]

32. The name depends on which bakery makes them

They are made by different bakeries around the country. Councils can pick the "bakery packages" that they prefer to see, so not every council will have the same cookies for sale. Even if they have the same recipe, if they are made by different bakeries, they will have different names. Thus, a trefoil in one council area can be called a shortbread in another, even though they are basically the same cookie.

So, do-si-do's in your council can be savannahs in another, and peanut butter cremes in another, even though they are the same cookie.

How do I know? I was a cookie mom for years!

[lavenderdiva]

26. frozen Thin Mints! Yummy!!

:bounce:

[tanyev]

27. Samoas are THE best,

and anyone who doesn't agree with me is WRONG!

:D

[Freebird12004]

28. "I Can't Stop With Just One Samoas"

:donut:

[tyedyeto]

29. Speaking as a GS leader for many years...........

Please remember that there are 2 different bakers for GS cookies and they don't call the cookies by the same names. The bakers are Little Brownie Bakers and ABC Bakers. Each council may choose which baker they will buy from, so many people would not necessarily know what a Tag-A-Long or a Samoa is. The other baker may call it something different. But by any name they call it, it is a very good cause to support. I've been known to give troops selling in front of grocery stores the money but not taking the cookies.

I was fortunate to take 15 girls to England in 1999 to an International Camp which turned out to be one of the highlights of my GS 'career'. Cookies definitely played a role in the fundraising that enabled us to take these girls across the ocean.

I LOVE Thim Mints, BTW. Frozen is the best!!!!!!

[The Zanti Regent]

30. mmmm Thim Mints with a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream

I love to stick 3 or 4 Thin MInts in a scoop of home made French Vanilla ice cream!

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

34. I voted for Trefoils

Although I liked the ones I sold as a Girl Scout better (they had a few sprinkles of sugar on them). I also love Thin Mints (preferably frozen) and Samoas.
