The new Girl Scout cookies are unreal. They taste like a mountain set on the sea. Like what you imagine Rosario Dawson smells like. I can’t get enough. The issue with them is the packaging. Unlike the fellow flavors, this new one features an unusual package. Every time you want to eat them you get hurt. I’ve been briefly electrocuted, bruised or had to have a conversation with someone about vegan culture. My last cookie came in a mouse trap. I could clearly see it. I knew the consequences but having that delicious, savory cookie in my mouth was worth it. Now I have a broken finger. Was it worth it? I’d do it again. Every Damn Time.
