The Girl Scouts are discontinuing a cult-favorite cookie

The Girl Scouts are discontinuing a popular cookie just a year after its debut sparked a frenzy.

Raspberry Rally won’t be sold this upcoming cookie-sales season, which runs January to April 2024, Girl Scouts of the USA has announced. The Rallies was introduced last year as a “sister” cookie to the iconic Thin Mints, a crisp mint-flavored cookie encased in chocolate, but in the Raspberry Rally, the cookie was replaced with a bright pink berry-flavored one. It was dipped in the same chocolate coating as its sibling.

The Rallies were the Girl Scouts’ first-ever cookie to be exclusively sold online, a strategy aimed at “enhancing girls’ e-commerce sales and entrepreneurial skills,” the organization announced last year.

But demand created an online shopping spree with some chapters reporting they sold out of the $5 boxes in less than a day. Resellers offered the Rallies on eBay for as much as $30 per box. The organization didn’t disclose how many boxes they produced.

“While Raspberry Rally was extremely popular last year, we are taking a pause this season to prioritize supplying our classic varieties,” the Girl Scouts of the USA said in a statement to CNN.

They were NOT little kids...and they’re being taught that killing babies is okay. And people like yourself are apparently supporting killing babies....which can never be right.

800 years ago, we sold GS cookies for $2.50/box. Walmart sells the thin mints and a couple of the other flavors for $1.77 today.

you don’t need to bother other peoples children, period. and almost always, the littles are who sell the cookies, not the older girls. So frankly i don’t believe you.
do you worry at all about kids outside the womb? Don’t bother to answer.

The top leaders of the Girl Scouts are lesbians.

Never even heard of Raspberry Rally GS cookies. Haven’t bought GS cookies in many years anyway.

You are right about Walmart and Keebler cookies being better, fresher and a FAR better value than GS cookies… who now disgustingly support such a woke ideology.
