My fellow Americans: it is girl scout cookie season. Tell me- what is your favorite girl scout cookie?

[-]

nmacInCT@reddit

Thin Mints. And they are meant to be eaten by the box or at least half the box. This is confirmed by the Weight Watcher app that has units in gm, ozs, cookie and "box"

[-]

Cookn8r@reddit

Never liked them; tried again a few years ago; they’re still horrible.

[-]

Ok-Truck-5526@reddit

Peanut Buttsr Patties and frozen a thin Mints.

[-]

PaleDreamer_1969@reddit

It was Thin Mints, and somewhere they changed manufacturers and THEY suck now.

[-]

Best-Introduction-55@reddit

Samoas club put your goddamn hands up.

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

Samoas or whatever the other name is.

I only buy from my neighbor’s kid. She’s an absolute hoot and I like her parents so she’s locked down my cookie purchase.

[-]

SonuvaGunderson@reddit

I was confused a few weeks ago. I asked for Samoas but the box said Caramel-dee-lites. They knew exactly what I meant but the box didn’t say it.

No matter though. Still delicious. Just didn’t know that that had changed.

What a delightfully American time of year. Girl Scout cookie season. Fond memories.

[-]

Kennesaw79@reddit

The name has to do with the bakery, or your location. When I lived in GA, the box read Samoa. When I moved to PA, they were called Caramel Delights or whatever.

[-]

Firebird22x@reddit

It’s not just the name, the taste is different as well.

Samoas are dark chocolate, bit more firm, and more coconut. Caramel DeLites are Milk Chocolate, less coconut / more caramel.

[-]

I wonder if I like the Samoa’s less now because they just cheaped out on ingredients and size (which in turn changes the texture) or if we got them from a different bakery when I lived other side of the Mississippi

[-]

moonwalkinginlowes@reddit

They definitely just changed in general bc we used to get the good Samoas in our area and they haven’t been the same in years

[-]

InevitableRhubarb232@reddit

I got the what are the ones with the little elves, the Keebler coconut dreams and they taste like the old Samoa’s

[-]

moonwalkinginlowes@reddit

Idk the name either but I know exactly which ones you’re talking about haha those are my favorite

[-]

Gertrude_D@reddit

ooooh, I didn't realize the cookie was different, but it makes sense. I'm glad that I have the Samoas then, I'm not a milk chocolate kind of girl.

[-]

Firebird22x@reddit

Oddly I don't like dark chocolate much, always been a milk chocolate guy, but I've turned down coworkers because their kid is in a Caramel DeLites territory. Samoas or nothing

[-]

Kennesaw79@reddit

Hmm, I never noticed. Again, could be the difference in bakeries.

[-]

throw20190820202020@reddit

Suuuper bizarre, because east coast is mostly Little Brownie Bakers (Samoas), and CA is mostly the other. You must have lived in two odd spots.

[-]

Disastrous_Mud7169@reddit

I live in WA and have only ever seen samoas and Tagalongs

[-]

BriLoLast@reddit

There are two different bakers for the cookies. You have ABC Bakers who usually do the Caramel Delights, and Little Brownie Bakers who usually do the Samoas.

For example, most of the East and west coasts are LBB except for a small part of FL, ME, a chunk of PA, NC, and a partial area of SC and TN. A small part of CA, and NV both use ABC otherwise all LBB. Most of the Midwest is ABC.

If you want to know what area you are in, you can usually look up the bakery map for the year. It’s mostly remained the same, but there was a little change within the last 5 years.

[-]

OldSlug@reddit

My local council switched from LBB to ABC this year and I’m LIVID. I had my daughter (former scout up here) mail me some Tagalongs and Do-Si-Dos because her council still uses LBB. It’s totally unacceptable** to switch bakeries without warning, like when your pharmacy switches you from name brand to generic medication without your permission.

*Not really, I’m exaggerating for effect.

**This is true though.

***Also an exaggeration, but I am kinda sad about it.

[-]

SonuvaGunderson@reddit

Yeah. OK. So. This is the best reply to a seemingly insignificant and minor Reddit comment I’ve ever seen.

Thank you.

[-]

InevitableRhubarb232@reddit

Have you moved recently?

[-]

SonuvaGunderson@reddit

Yes. MA >> SC

[-]

InevitableRhubarb232@reddit

Thaddabeit

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

Yeah they have different suppliers but I don’t know why the different suppliers use different names.

[-]

cptjeff@reddit

Trademarks. The second bakery started up to undercut the first. Cheaper for the council to buy and sold at the same price= more profit for the scouts. And while you can't trademark a recipe or a basic descriptive name like "Shortbread", you can trademark something like "Samoa" or "Tagalong". That's also why the recipes are a little different.

[-]

MsPennyP@reddit

There's two different bakers, some of the cookies have different names from them.

[-]

Kennesaw79@reddit

If you live near an ALDI, they have a knockoff that's better than the original IMO (and under $3).

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

I have had them. They’re good. It just felt like I was ripping off the little neighbor girl.

I don’t eat many cookies so I save it for the fundraising.

[-]

GingerrGina@reddit

I get the Aldi ones but then make a straight donation to the scouts. Goes much further.

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

Yeah that’s probably the more efficient way but like I said the neighbor kid is my hook up.

[-]

Brother_To_Coyotes@reddit

I don’t buy them for the cookies I buy them for the scouts.

[-]

jessiyjazzy123@reddit

I only buy the Aldi kind now. So good!

[-]

Sean081799@reddit

Samoas gang rise up

[-]

ColoradoCattleCo@reddit

Samoas are also my favorite. My wife is a kindergarten teacher and buys a couple boxes from all her kiddos that sell them, so I end up with like 10 boxes every year.

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

That is sweet. She is enriching the life of her students at your expense 😉

[-]

ColoradoCattleCo@reddit

And at the expense of my waistline.

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

If I have Samoas it’s basically a race to see how fast I’ll eat them.

[-]

Kaurifish@reddit

Frack, these are the best possible cookie but still have palm oil (RIP orangutans) and hydrogenated oils (hello heart attack). Grrr…

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

I get them once a year and my diet is bad enough they won’t make a dent.

I thought they ditched the palm oil or were planning to? Maybe I’m wrong on that.

[-]

Kaurifish@reddit

I know they did for many of the other recipes. Wouldn't surprise me if it just wasn't possible for these dark little miracles.

[-]

Brother_To_Coyotes@reddit

This is the way. Somoas. Bought from neighborhood children.

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

[-]

yalejosie@reddit

THIN MINTS!

[-]

BlackshirtDefense@reddit

Nutter Butters.

They're always available, cheaper, and you don't have to be accosted by aggressive den mothers to buy them.

[-]

ZephRyder@reddit

Thin Mints. Always Thin Mints.

I've eaten too many already this season, so I've got a box in the freazer until I lose another 10 lbs

[-]

bi_polar2bear@reddit

Unfortunately my neighborhood no longer has kids, so no cookie delivery. I'd kill for Samoas

[-]

Loud_Inspector_9782@reddit

Thin Mints is the answer. I love them.

[-]

Caramel Delights are the only boxed cookies I will eat.

[-]

Thin mints, and it's not even close.

[-]

StopSignsAreRed@reddit

People sleep on Do-Si_Dos. Excellent peanut butter sandwich cookie.

[-]

Lumbergod@reddit

Aldis has an excellent Do-Si-Do counterfeit at half of the price.

[-]

nimaku@reddit

I’m a frequent Aldi shopper and have never seen a Do-si-do knock off. They have Nutter Butter knock offs that are decent, but Do-si-dos have oatmeal cookies with peanut butter in between, and there’s no oatmeal in the Aldi ones. The look of the cookie itself and the packaging are also clearly modeled after Nutter Butter cookies and packaging.

[-]

SaintJimmy1@reddit

They have dosidos now too? I’ve only ever seen the tagalongs and thin mints.

[-]

frijolita_bonita@reddit

I’m in. Next time I see them I’m grabbing some

[-]

[-]

Advanced-Culture189@reddit

Thin Mints and Samoas

[-]

Relevant-Ad4156@reddit

My favorite is the Peanut Butter Patties/Tagalongs. Followed closely by the Caramel Delites/Samoas.

But you're not truly eating girl scout cookies if you're not eating Thin Mints.

[-]

Zappagrrl02@reddit

Thin mints from the freezer!!

[-]

tzweezle@reddit

FYI the Pepperidge Farm mint Milano cookies taste just like thin mints

[-]

jBillark@reddit

especially if you keep the Thin Mints in the freezer!

[-]

papercranium@reddit

Put a box of Thin Mints in the back of the freezer. Take it out on a hot summer day. Consume, still frozen, with a glass of lemonade.

Now THAT is how you enjoy Girl Scout Cookies.

[-]

noodlesarmpit@reddit

Or, when we lived in Texas, you freeze them and then eat them as soon as they're frozen because in March it's already 90* out.

[-]

Merakel@reddit

I could easily eat 15 boxes of Caramel Delites in a day. Wouldn't even be a challenge.

[-]

silviazbitch@reddit

But you're not truly eating Girl Scout cookies if you're not eating Thin Mints.

[-]

1-800-KETAMINE@reddit

But you're not truly eating Girl Scout cookies if you're not eating Thin Mints.

About a month ago I put a box into my freezer to wait for the first hot days of summer. That was a wonderful family tradition when I was growing up.

Sometimes I remember stuff like how absurd it is that after all of human history, here I am, putting mass-produced cookies tuned to light up reward centers in my brain into my might-as-well-be-magic cold box (it's not magic, I know exactly how it works, but you get what I mean) so that when I come into my cooled home on a hot-as-fuck day, I can have a nice lil' treat. All this on a tiny rock floating through space. Things to be thankful for.

[-]

ST4RSK1MM3R@reddit

Man I used to love Tagalongs but for some reason that last few times I’ve had them they had this really strong chemical aftertaste and it was awful

[-]

justadorkygirl@reddit

Yup! Tagalongs and Thin Mints are where it’s at.

Also, do yourself a favor and google “Girl Scout wine pairings.” There are so many options!

[-]

InevitableRhubarb232@reddit

Tagalongs would be so much better w a bit of caramel inside. Real caramel though not the trash stuff.

[-]

purplehorseneigh@reddit (OP)

I’d normally also get a box of thin mints too, but this time I wanted to give the lemonades a shot for a change

they’re good, but I think the thin mints are better

[-]

Zappagrrl02@reddit

Samoas

[-]

Comfortable_Cow3186@reddit

I really like the caramel ones. But I never buy any because the price is insanely high and I'm just not interested in paying that much for cookies. Someone in my office buys them and they're pretty tasty though, just not worth the price for me.

[-]

redditsuckspokey1@reddit

The caramel ones. Havent had them for nearly a decade. Last i checked they were $6/box. Too rich for my blood.

[-]

Craigh-na-Dun@reddit

Thin mints. Period.

[-]

SorryButterfly4207@reddit

Thin mints are the best....

HOWEVER, I've eaten 3 boxes already this month and I haven't gotten any thinner. Definitely something funny going on.

[-]

WritPositWrit@reddit

Thin mints. Now please arrange for a Girl Scout to come to my door so I can place my order. (It’s actually late here- gs cookie season was March here)

[-]

minnesotanmama@reddit

How about your virtual door? It's not too late to stock up. :-) My scout Rowan would love to help connect you with cookies - she lets everyone know that her favorites are Lemonades, Toast Yays, and frozen Thin Mints, and you can order online for shipping right to your door in less than a week. She says Thank You for supporting Girl Scouts! Her cookie season goes until this Sunday 4/6: https://digitalcookie.girlscouts.org/scout/rowan532032

WanderingSoul-7632@reddit

Ever since they switched the baking company and changed the names of the cookies the flavor and quality went waaaay downhill. Sad.

[-]

Greyattimes@reddit

Trefoils, then next is tagalongs.

[-]

scorpion_71@reddit

Samoas were my favorite. Tagalongs are number two and thin mints are third. I'm fifty-one so I try to avoid cookies due to a slower metabolism and uncontrollable cookie appetite. I thought about buying some and then putting them in the freezer for one per day use BUT I don't trust myself.

[-]

I’m not much for Girl Scout cookies, but I do get hyped about Boy Scout popcorn. I use to buy the tin container of chocolate drizzled popcorn and loved it.

Funnily enough, I was telling my girlfriend about it and we accidentally found some chocolate drizzled popcorn about 20 minutes later here in Uganda.

TheLovelyLorelei@reddit

Weirdly I love the mint chocolate thing but still think thin-mints are kinda mid. I think the texture of something like an Andes or York Peppermint Pattie is a superior form of chocolate + mint to a cookie.

Try dark chocolate and mint TimTams

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

I agree thin mints are mid but Andes and peppermint patties are totally low tier candies.

[-]

bananapanqueques@reddit

I don’t like mint chocolate except for thin mints and Andes mints. Otherwise, it is wretched.

[-]

ScarletDarkstar@reddit

I like the combination, but those are the 2 ideal versions. Andes are so smooth, and the mint is soft and not bitter.

[-]

I only like Andes because they had them in a jar at our local Chinese food place growing up and the mom/owner/chef was so nice that I think she made them better.

I’m the same way. Mint is almost exclusively for hygiene in my mind (soap, toothpaste, shampoo, gum, breath mints etc). Can’t stand things like mint ice cream or those chocolate and mint York patties. But for some reason thin mints are divine and those andes mints are good too though not quite the same level.

I miss the Savannah Smiles so much!! They were one of my favorites. And you're right, the new lemon cookies aren't the same.

[-]

xxxjessicann00xxx@reddit

Savannah Smiles were soooooo good. The girl I always bought from had to get them specially for me because no one else ever bought them lol.

[-]

justlkin@reddit

Same here. Nobody makes anything that comes even close to Savanah Smiles. If I didn't practice some measure of self control, I could've eaten a whole box in a sitting.

[-]

nyki@reddit

It was really difficult to pace myself! I basically had to portion them out ahead of time so I didn't devour the whole box. I'm not sure why it's so hard to replicate, but every time I've tried they're either too crunchy or taste like unsweetened lemon.

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

Trefoils are just the shortbread ones right?

Not bad but not my favorite. It is one of those things where I have preferences but I’ve never had a bad Girl Scout cookie.

[-]

nyki@reddit

Yeah, the ones that look like the logo. It's more of a nostalgia thing, for whatever reason child-me liked that one the best so I default to it being my favorite.

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

Yeah the default childhood thing is probably why I like samoas. Also I had a big crush on the girl down the street that did the selling. 9 year old boys are dumb you know?

[-]

nyki@reddit

Totally valid reason IMO. 😆 I was lucky enough to have my mom be the GS leader one year, and during the sales we ended up with mountains of cookie boxes stacked around the house waiting to be delivered. I was surrounded by every available option and still liked shortbread the best.

[-]

CupBeEmpty@reddit

Heh that’s great. My supplier isn’t doing the cookies this year so I have to find a new GS.

[-]

EK60@reddit

Thin Mints reign supreme. They're the best when they've been in the freezer overnight.

[-]

HumpaDaBear@reddit

It’s a tie. Thin mints and Samoas.

[-]

Wingbow7@reddit

Unpopular opinion here—none of them. I find them stale, bland and overpriced. I really tried to find a flavor I liked too.

[-]

RandomBiter@reddit

My favorite GS cookie hasn't been made since the early 80's. It was a coconut creme sandwich cookie and if I'd known it was being discontinued I would've bought every box I could lay hands on.

[-]

grandzu@reddit

Didn't the time to sell those just end?

[-]

minnesotanmama@reddit

Depends on the council - my scout's council cookie sales go through end of the day Sunday, 4/6

[-]

redditreader_aitafan@reddit

Girl scout cookies are $6-7 this year. Of that, the local troop gets less than $1. Manufacturing and packaging costs about $1.50, which means that more than 50% of what you spend on girl scout cookies goes to "the organization".

The girl scouts do not own the recipes to their cookies, the manufacturers do. There are 2 manufacturers in the US, one for the east and one for the west. One is the biggest manufacturer of store brands in the US and the other is a subsidiary of Keebler. This means that you can buy Keebler or the store brand and have very high odds that it's exactly the same cookie.

Your local troop would be better off if you went into the store and bought either Keebler or the store brand and then gave them the difference between that price and $6. This would give them more than double what they currently make.

[-]

Dalton387@reddit

Thin mints. Followed by samoas.

DecemberPaladin@reddit

Samoas/Tagalongs. Coconut? Caramel? Chocolate? Crispy-ass wafer? Amazing.

[-]

Mdoe5402@reddit

Thin Mints followed by Trefoils (good with coffee)

[-]

tinkeringidiot@reddit

I have a Girl Scout, so I end up buying nearly all of them (except Caramel DeLites - coconut allergies).

Also the cookie season is variable. Ours has been over for several weeks now, but it starts at the beginning of January.

[-]

distillenger@reddit

I used to think $6 for a box of cookies was outrageous. Now it's a great deal...

[-]

famousanonamos@reddit

Short bread and thin mint. The lemon ones are good from either baker, but they give you so little for the money now it's not even worth it. I'd rather just give them cash at this point because the troops only get like $1 per box. I think the toast ones are being discontinued after this year.

[-]

Madame_Kitsune98@reddit

Oh damn, the little cookie dealers are gonna fleece me for some Tagalongs and Thin Mints.

But, I also like the Lemonades.

Keep in mind, I usually hate mint and chocolate together because I think it tastes like dirt, but I sure will scarf a box of Thin Mints. My favorite is the Tagalongs, and I have to hide them from my husband. Because he will eat them, and Thin Mints, and I prefer Tagalongs.

Samoas (or caramel delites though that’s a much worse name). Thin mints are also excellent. I loved the old lemon cookies with lemon powdered sugar but I believe they got rid of those.

Peanut butter patties. They are far to easy to enjoy before you realize you ate the whole container.

This is a shameful opinion but the Keebler knockoffs are better 😬🫣 Girl Scout Peanut Butter Sandwiches are unparalleled though

I-Am-Yew@reddit

One of the bakeries made these raspberry shortbread with cream drizzle cookies for a short time. They were superior to any of my other favorites. (Think similar to the desired Philly cheesecake bars.)

1) Tagalongs

2) Samoas

3) Thin Mints

4) Everything else is tied except the following.

N-1) Trefoils

N) Those ones with the Toffee Crunch in them I forget their name, and I don't even know if they still make them.

N is however many cookies there are, I don't know.

And before anyone tries to say "They're Coconut Clusters" in THIS house we respect the Little Brownie Bakery thank you very much!

How I wish they'd bring back Savannah Smiles! They're my favorite cookie of all time, even edging out Thin Mints.

[-]

C-romero80@reddit

My daughter sells them, season is over for us here, but I definitely had to get the toast yay, lemonades, Carmel delites and thin Mint. It's the last year for toast yay and s'mores so we wanted to get some extra toast yay lol s'mores is the other baker.

LomentMomentum@reddit

The thin mints. Hands down.

[-]

InevitableRhubarb232@reddit

Thin mints. Frozen.

The samoas used to be better but I actually prefer the Keebler knock offs now. They’re closer to how the Samoa’s used to be

Samoas, then Tagalongs, then Adventurefuls. I buy over $100 every year.

Samoa's.

Kielbasa_Nunchucka@reddit

thin mints. I have to get two boxes cuz my wife will eat a whole one on the first night.

I really like those lemon ones they make now, too.

[-]

etchedchampion@reddit

Tagalongs and samoas (your caramel delights and peanut butter patties) have been my favorites for my entire life.

[-]

SeaMollusker@reddit

I don't know what they put in the S'mores cookies but I could easily eat 3 packs in one sitting.

[-]

FJJ34G@reddit

I grew up on Thin Mints. Then I found out they had something called Lemonades; big, flat wide cakey sugar cookies that had a giant lemon imprint on the top, and the bottom was dipped in a lemon-white chocolate coating. Absolutely Devine!

They stopped selling them a few years ago- at least one of my friend who is a Mom said several troops in our region stopped selling them. I found out our local grocery store has a pretty decent dup of the Lemonade cookies, though... and they're a lovely treat when I need a pick me up!

I wish I could be a part of the thin mints crowd. Everyone loves them. I can't do mint with chocolate. My brain doesn't allow the flavor of toothpaste into desserts. According to everyone here, that's what joy tastes like. I have none.

I'm a Samoa/Caramel Delites person. Now I really really really want some.

Adventurefuls (new fave since they were introduced in 2022)
Tagalongs
Thin Mints

According to this link, the sales break down in 2011 looked like this:

Thin Mints (25 percent)
Samoas/Caramel deLites (19 percent)
Peanut Butter Patties/Tagalongs (13 percent)
Peanut Butter Sandwich/Do-si-dos (11 percent)
Shortbread/Trefoils (9 percent)
The other varieties, combined, account for the remaining 23 percent

ExtremeIndividual707@reddit

Thin mints!

Also....HEB has girl scout cookie knock-offs.

[-]

Js987@reddit

Lemonades, but honestly I don’t like the MLM-esque way the cookie program runs and also much prefer a brand of lemon sandwich cookies ShopRite carries.

[-]

Feeling_Freedom_4278@reddit

The Samoas are my absolute favorite! I actually picked some up yesterday they were outside of Walmart my Wife jumped out the car before I even put it in park to go get a box. 😂

Samoas. And very importantly, they are not interchangeable with Caramel deLites.

Little_Parfait8082@reddit

Samoas, keep them in the freezer and eat them frozen.

[-]

guywithshades85@reddit

All of them, except for the one that has coconut.

[-]

Jujubeee73@reddit

Thin mints. Caramel Delites are a close second.

[-]

StunGod@reddit

I used to like thin mints until I ate a box full and drank a bunch of random liquor one day at lunch during my senior year in high school. There was barfing and discipline, in that order.

They're still good, but 40 years later they bring me right back to that time.

Samosas are my go-to. They rock.

[-]

LadyCoru@reddit

Trefoil. It's been a few years but I really loved the Thanks-a-Lots too.

[-]

Hypnotiqua@reddit

I really like the basic b shortbread cookies. They melt in my mouth. My dog likes the pb sandwich cookies.

oswin13@reddit

Do si dos and Samoas. Trefoils slap with a little Nutella.

[-]

Ravenclaw79@reddit

Oohhh, why did I never think of that? 😳🤤

[-]

Lumbergod@reddit

Tagalongs. I'm pretty sure that they have crack in them.

[-]

Yankee_chef_nen@reddit

Cookie season ended a couple of weeks ago here.

[-]

JustJake1985@reddit

I love Samoas. I repeatedly get told "ew they're gross" and yet they clearly are a popular flavor, otherwise they wouldn't make them, AND this year I stopped at two different tables and both were sold out of Samoas, so clearly I'm not the only one who enjoys "gross" cookies. 🤣

[-]

javiergoddam@reddit

I like thin mints. I think my favs would be Samoas but they suffer from mid ingredients

[-]

Sverker_Wolffang@reddit

Tagalongs

[-]

taniamorse85@reddit

For some reason, my two favorites have things I don't care for: coconut (Caramel Delites) and mint (Thin Mints). I have no idea why I ever tried either of those, and it shocked me that I liked them.

It's exceedingly rare that I buy Girl Scout cookies, though. At most, I might buy a box every five years or so. There are some flavors I have yet to try, too.

[-]

Ravenclaw79@reddit

Thin Mints, Tagalongs, Do-Si-Dos … honestly, most of them are pretty good 😋

[-]

shelwood46@reddit

Samoas, Tagalongs, Thin Mints, player to be named later (those toffee ones were good, do they still have those?)

[-]

Kennesaw79@reddit

Thin Mints because they're a classic. And Do-si-dos - the oatmeal/PB ones - because I haven't found a good knockoff.

If you live near an ALDI, they sell a knockoff Samoa/Caramel Delight that IMO are better than the GS version - at half the price. They also have a version of Tagalongs (chocolate-covered PB) that are pretty good.

Nice to see the Trefoils freaks are keeping themselves scarce in this thread.

I like tagalongs, personally.

[-]

RadRadMickey@reddit

Wait... there's alternative names for Girl Scout cookies?!?! Whaaatttt???

[-]

Prior_Particular9417@reddit

Thin mints is the only correct answer. And it’s required to eat an entire sleeve at a time.

[-]

Outfield14@reddit

Tagalongs. Can't beat peanut butter and chocolate

[-]

I like Samoas best.

Back then I liked the Thank You Berry Munch ones- but they do not make them anymore.

bev665@reddit

Samoas. But I don't buy them because I'll eat the whole box in a day.

[-]

nicheencyclopedia@reddit

The only ones I bother with are Tagalongs (peanut butter patties). I’ll eat Thin Mints or Do-Si-Dos if they’re offered to me, but not worth the price imho

[-]

AromaticSun6312@reddit

Dosidos and/or Tagalongs. It used to be the short bread ones but I’ve gotten over those.

[-]

voteblue18@reddit

I used to be into the shortbread Trefoils but now they just taste very fake vanilla like. And you can always find Lorna Doones at the supermarket and they are superior.
