Girl Scout Cookies

submitted by Byrn Stuff on Wednesday, February 23 2005 at 2:15 AM

Alpha Phi Omega will be selling girl scout cookies for the troop that we work with at the Governor Morehead School. GMS is a live-in school for the visually impaired. The girls would sell the cookies themselves, but they cannot leave their campus. The money made will be divided between what goes back to GSA and what directly goes into the girls' budget. None of it benefits us.

Cookies are three dollars a box, and we will sell them from 11am-3pm every day until Friday the 4th. Our table will be in front of the Free Expression Tunnel. Please come support us so we can do fun projects and badge earning activities with the girls.

"The Girl Scouts' national office has received complaints because the cookies are made with plenty of partially hydrogenated vegetable oil -- think Crisco or margarine -- which the Food and Drug Administration and the nation's top medical researchers agree is the most dangerous fat in the human diet. The artificially manufactured fat, which raises bad cholesterol, lowers good cholesterol and is suspected of interfering with the body's metabolic process, is considered so unhealthy that the FDA is forcing companies to disclose trans fat amounts on food labels by 2006. Trans fat amounts will be listed on cookie boxes next year -- a year ahead of the FDA mandate -- and the companies that bake Girl Scout cookies are being encouraged to find an alternative oil as soon as possible, she said."

you could put actual girl scouts inside girl scout cookies, and people would still buy them. who gives a crap about oil? they're delicious.

in prt 238, they tell us to write people who are visually impaired.

^well, they're not completely blind. It's that most are legally blind.

i talk shit about girl scout cookies. they need to change the formula of those things, because they are so 15 years ago.

2/27/2005 1:13:13 PM

they changed suppliers 3-4 years ago and they're not as good any more ... the thin mints used to be a lot mintier than they are now, and the other varieties have their own problems now too. We used to order like 6+ boxes then we'd still be buyin em when the girls around here were selling them at the door at places like Kroger. This year I think we've gotten 3, and there are still some lying around from those 3.

Mmmmm Girl Scout cookies! I've got my boxes!

2/28/2005 6:10:13 PM

I thought cookies were $3.50 a box now

and by the way, if you really just want to support the girl scouts - just give them a dollar. The actual troop makes like 25 cents per box

2/28/2005 6:12:01 PM

but I don't get cookies as a result of that

I just want the cookies.
