    The Samoas (with their delicious dark chocolate) were so much better than the new Caramel Delites. Don't misunderstand, the Caramel Delites are still good, they're just not as good.

    ................THEY GOT RID OF SAMOAS?!

    Life is over.

    Seriously??? Those and the Tagalongs are the bessssst. Sad day.

    Order boxes that are donated to the military. I know that they would greatly appreciate them. Most troops offer this option.

    I bought a box of thin mints, a box of Do Si Dos and a box of the new granola bars. I will give the thin mints to my nephew minus 2 cookies, the Do Si Dos to my Dad minus 2 cookies and I will keep the granola bars. All in moderation.

    Unless you plan on NEVER EATING COOKIES again, buy some. Don't open the box until you are ready to. When you do open them, portion some out. Put the box away.

    Please people...realize that this is not a diet. It is a lifestyle change. If you treat it like a diet you will be successful, you will get off of "your diet" and you will inevitably gain the weight back.

    Thin Mints ... they come every year calling to my front door with their escort, a girl scout. They stare at me and beg me to pick them up. This year - I left the house to avoid their call. Yet, my husband broke down and brought them into the house. He knows how much they call my name and I adore/love them so.... DAMN them and him. I must be strong. I must not love them so.....

    I put them in single serving bags, and freeze them. so I can only thaw one serving at a time. That helps me control myself from eating the entire box! lol

    I can't wait to get girl scout cookies...I love them and since it's once a year, I'm getting them and will enjoy them-just not a whole box of thin mints in one sitting :bigsmile:


    Agreed!!! I'm not going to deny myself, just will not over do it!! :wink:

    I get them to contribute to the Girl Guides, but I bring them into work. I don't like the mint ones, and the only other ones we get here in chocolate are the cream filled ones. I can pass on them with a bit of will-power. That one in the pic on the thread looks awfully good.

    The problem is you only gave them 50-65 cents a box depending on where you live. If you want to support them just give a donation that they can keep 100% of.

    The good news for me is that since I work with a whole lot of kids, it's pretty much policy that we don't order any at all, for the sake of fairness. Otherwise I'd be swimming in a sea of Samoas, for sure.

    They didn't get rid of them. They are just from a different baker. Councils have two bakers to choose from...Little Brownie (Samoas) and ABC (Carmel deLites).

    My daughter is a Girl Scout so yes, it's a dilemma. I ate a ton of Dulce de Leche today. But I will NOT do it tomorrow. (They are gone.) That's the key here. One day is OK. Just not everyday.

    I took mine to work as well. My kids don't eat that many so it's best to share. My husband doesn't like them. OMG! So really it's just me. And I'm known to eat a whole box. And then be in a bad mood the rest of the day. So it's not good for anyone.
