Girl Scout cookies recently went on sale so prepare yourself for heated debates about the best cookie and, of course, the guilt of eating an entire box of cookies in one sitting. I wasn’t surprised to learn that Thin Mints are the all-time best selling cookies (as well as my personal favorite). Regardless of your preferred Girl Scout cookie, most of the people reading this will contribute to the $700 million-plus annual fundraising empire. When the Girl Scouts started selling cookies decades ago, only one kind of cookie was available – a simple sugar cookie. Over the years, over 50 kinds of cookies have been sold as Girl Scout cookies and about 40 of those have been discontinued.
