Well by George, if those little brown clad muffins come to my house, I will turn their fatty little cookies RIGHT OFFn my doorstep.
How dare they!
I will buy little Pitabread Sandwiches from the the Burqua Bonnies instead, yes I will!
( I always salt away 4 or 5 boxes of GS cookies! Annual right of passage.)

Is this article the truth? If not, it is offensive. To be honest, just because an article is from the MSMs does not make it truth. So what is the point? So much of the media anymore is made up spin.I swear this is the truth. You can't make this stuff up. It's a pretty sad state of affairs when you can't use satire or reductio ad absurdum arguments to make fun of the paternalistic health Nazi's. Fact is stranger than fiction.
We can ask, ban smoking in bars? What are they going to do next, ban girl scout cookies? Answer: Uh, yeah, ban girl scout cookies. The fake article was in the Onion but they wouldn't let me post it on FR.
I actually found this piece of news while reading the Center for Consumer Freedom

When my grand daughter was selling them, she got my wife on the phone and sold her 10 boxes. She then sweetly asked to talk to me, whereupon she tried to get me to buy some too.
I told her that grandma would share with me.

Have cookie, a glass of milk and relax.It won't be a Girl Scout cookie, I can guarantee you that.
For one thing, the cookies are overrated. For another, I have no use for rude children, or for their enabling parents that think everything their little darlings do is worthy of outright worship by the rest of us.
To: Larry Lucido
I'll be buying three extra boxes of each variety this year.
Girl scout cookies are the best and they hold up in the freezer well.I'll have cookies until next years Girl scout cookie sale.:)

Well I actually agree with the premise of this article. I think it is utterly irresponsible for the Girl Scouts to be pushing this crap on America to raise money.
I think the Girl Scouts of America would do better to sell something more wholesome like raisins, nuts or olive oil. All those products have long shelf life which is conducive for long-term fundraising. As well, they are packed with nutrition and free of hydrogenated oils and high fructose corn syrups.

Girl Scout rules specifically prohibit that sort of behavior. The girls are not allowed to get in your face and not allowed to ask for donations.The girls got in my way and acted like panhandlers, but they did not ask for donations. The adults did that after I said, twice, that I didn't want any of their damned cookies.
And the adults with them should know better.
Is there a hotline number I can call to bust them? I would so drop a dime on those ladies. LOL
