My wife ordered three boxes from someone she works with and I finally killed my one box of Samoa's last night. What's your cookie of choice?

If you would have told my 15 year old self that a coconut cookie would be my 30 year old self's favorite cookie I would've laughed in your face. But those fuckers are so damn good.

I used to love the classic Thin Mint, but the Samoa shits all over it.

Are these the peanut butter ones? I think they're too sweet, can't eat more than 1.

The chocolate covered peanut butter one.

The other peanut butter one between 2 cookies I don't like.

Yeah, PB and cookie dipped in chocolate. They are good but I can only eat one or two.

The peanut butter ones that taste like nutter butter is my fave.

I remember back in the day my mom would buy over 40 boxes from our neighbor to help her out. The boxes would normally come in right after wrestling season was over. I would kill them and quickly put on all the weight I cut.

I love 'em too, but your future 50 year old heart won't appreciate them!

Used to buy several boxes of the Lemon Chalet Cremes every year. But the little twats in Ohio discontinued them a few years ago and replaced them with some lowfat lemon turd cookies. So now I buy Samoas and Do Si Dos.

I go basic. I love me some Trefoils. Bought two boxes for myself, and bought my wife two boxes of the Samoas from one of the neighborhood kids.

I gave up sweets for Lent and fucked myself because I forgot about girl scout cookies. Gonna have to get a few boxes from them at Kroger to save for after Easter.

I prefer Thin Mints and Do Si Dos. I tried to order some this year, but the girl (nor her mother) ever got back to me. Oh well, I guess.

LOOVE me some coconut...can eat that stuff plain!

but i favor the thin mints.

Gotta hate what I read recently...each one of them is 40 calories...so about 1200 a box. Heck, it is nothing to eat a sleeve at one sitting!!!

You can enjoy samoa's during non-girl scout cookie time (and for a smaller cost).



Same. Exact. Cookie.

The Grasshoppers are pretty much the same thing as thin mints too.

Which by the way, I can eat Thin Mints by the box.

I don't want to enjoy them all the time. I want to enjoy them once a year.

I think Samoas are disgusting, but here are some other treats you can have year round:

Baked Samoa donuts, Somoa cupcakes, Somoa bars, etc. Not that any of you will make any of these. But you can ask your lady friends.

I picked up 160 cases of cookies this week, that's 1920 boxes that were in my house at one point. (Wife is troop leader).

I perfer the Samoas.
The most popular are Thin Mints
Do-Si-Do (PNB sandwich), Samoas, & Tagalongs are #2-#4.
