I’m not affiliated with the Girl Scouts. They are only available for a short time every year. Everyone has their favorites and is a highly argued subject. I sent the entire line that was available this year. The cherry mash is a local company. They are not my thing, too sweet but many people love them. My dog absolutely loves the duck treats. Wish I could get you some Kansas City Barbecue. If you ever make it be sure to have the burnt ends! I would recommend from Arthur Bryant’s but that also is a highly contested subject. Joes would come second for me. Glad you enjoyed the box.
Good job with the box! :)
Yes, KC BBQ (and burnt ends in particular) is the BEST! I'm from Iowa so I visit KC every now and then - I have to try your restaurant recommendations!
Great goody box! So thoughtful to include the dog! I don't know whether they didn't see this, or if they don't know it's you! If they did, I'm sure they'd pin it. Right, @YourNZFamily? ;)
That was such a wonderful idea to send them girl scout cookies! We got 2 people at work every year from Europe or one from France and 1 from Latin America. I always make an effort to order some for them so that they can experience it as well. Particularly in the last year when they can't go out and do a lot of things because of the pandemic I try to make their stay here as interesting as possible
Well done Charles. Here in upstate NY, I've not seen the cherry mash.
Great box
The thin mint cookie after they have been in the freezer are the best!!!
Absolutely I could eat an entire sleeve! 🤣~Cara
Beat me to it! :)
Yes, yes, yes. Stick them in the freezer and dunk them in your coffee.
@@rodneygriffin7666 or a good large glass of ice cold milk!
@@JohnandCaraRetiredTravellers I have eaten entire sleeves in the past. I’m not ashamed to admit it.
Girl Scout Cookies are an American institution. It's only sold for a few months each year. When I was in Iraq girl scout groups donated cookies and sent them to the soldiers. It was such a wonderful feeling of home except the desert heat melted the cookies in transit so the Thin Mints for example melted into Log Mints. They were still tasty!
Girl Scouts Rock👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 one of the last honorable organizations here in America
When I got some in Iraq the thin mints were pretty melted, but they were still great.
@@yendub Air Cav..🇺🇸🇺🇸Air Assault. Looking good my brother from another mother. We should send this guy some American Beer🤣🤣
Thank you for your service!
@@yendub Thank you for your service!
Hello from a former girl scout. The scouts sold these cookies to raise money for our troop projects and trips. I was the only girl in my county who completed every level of scouts starting at daisy's all the way through seniors in high school. I learned so much from being a girl scout from lessons in teamwork to survival skills. FYI thin mints best served after freezing and peanut butter sandwiches are delicious dipped in a glass of cold milk.
I'm not a fan of dipping them (peanut butter patties) in milk. Mainly because the milk just rolls off of the chocolate. You need a dry cookie to soak up the milk. Just don't get the same result with the patties. But I agree 100% with the Thinmints in the freezer
@@ChanelStuffPeanut Butter Sandwiches (Do-si-dos) not the patties. They're BOMB dipped in milk. LoL And yes, freezer for the Thin Mints.
I never thought that I'd watch a 21 minute video of a family saying " Mmmmmm mmmm mmm". And actually enjoy it. I love your family. ❤️
You just called us all out
I’m right there with you. Lol
😂.. ditto
There’s a secret to eating Thin Mints: put them in the freezer. They are AMAZING and way better than room temperature.
That's what I said too!
It almost bothers me that the person who sent this stuff didn’t include that info in their letter lol
Agreed
Very true
Peanut butter patty in the freezer is also amazing.
I was a Girl Scout and my daughter was too. The practical lessons learned have been core values that have guided my life. I am now in my early fifties and am grateful for what Girl Scouts has done for my daughter and me.
“My socks are gone, officially”
Highly acceptable response to a Girl Scout cookie reaction.
There are 200 million boxes of girl scout cookies sold each year. When we hear they're going to get ready to sell them, we go ahead and order then to make sure we get our favorites
No Doubt!!
Now you know the "problem" with Girl Scout Cookies...they’re as addictive as crack cocaine; they are REALLY good. My weakness is the "Thin Mints;" I can go through a sleeve of those without even realizing it. They're really good if you put them in the freezer.
Word....the lemon ones..damn
@@spsniper1170 Oh, those are REALLY good, too. I'm able to hold off...only to find that my wife has eaten the rest of the box. I guess that's why I haven't gained much weight in years...
I didn't say it, and you shouldn't have thought it... 😆
@@spsniper1170 yes! What are they called? Lemonaids or something???? Yep, love those and the thin mints of course 🥰
@@Melanie-sn1rc umm...lemon...something..but they're the best...ever
Girl Scout cookies are addictive! My favorites are Somoas and Thin Mints!
For years now the Girl Scouts have been selling outside of grocery stores, and other businesses. When I was a Girl Scout, we still went door to door. Also, our parents would take an order sheet to work for their co-workers to order some too. The varieties are actually very regional. Not all flavors are available in all locations across the states. I like Lemonades and Peanut Butter Patties, but my all-time fav is Samoas. Hands down. SO good. And as others have said, Thin Mints in the freezer. You won't regret it!
There are 2 bakers in the US for Girl Scout cookies. The Thin Mints at each are the same recipe, the main cookies (Samoas/Caramel Delights, Trefoils/Shortbreads, Do-Si-Dos/Peanut butter sandwiches, Tagalongs/Peanut butter patties) are always there. The lemon and others change but each baker has 1 lemon flavored cookie each year and 1 gluten free each year. In the last several years they added the S'Mores cookies. The types you get depend on which of the 2 bakers your council chooses to partner with. Ours uses Little Brownie which is actually the original bakery.
@@yowyo2006 , Wisconsin troops must partner with both because some kids have cookies that others don't, but it is one town over to get the ones they are missing.
@@profanepersonality it all depends on each, individual council :)
The cookie nazis get you everytime. I'll literally have cases in my garage after cookie season.
I am old enough to have sold door to door and sold before the Carmel delights. When I sold them they were only 50 cents a box.
We can only get girl scout cookies once a year so whoever got you these planned this box for when they came out. Which means your channel is very special to them. Glad you all enjoy our favorite treats
Or they could have a kid whose a Girl Scout because as a Girl Scout we normally have leftovers and a ton of them
I used to be able to buy them all year round here where I live, then Radio Shack went out of business. I still get them through my local Taco John's where the manager gets them for me.😊❤
I never will forget Wednesday Adam's asking if the cookies were made from real girl scouts :)
Forgot about that ! Good one ! 🤣
😂😊
Many Americans look forward to Girl Scout "season" each year! It is a charitable fund raiser for the Girl Scouts. The cookies are great and we all have favorites.
I'm totally one of those Americans!
@@einnAnnie right! Lol. They don’t usually make it to the cupboard.
I have bought the Thin mints in multiple cases at times. I used them for bribes with load planners when I drove trucks over the road. I would get the loads I wanted 99% of the time when walking in with a box of thin Mints in hand. Thin Mints is also my weakness I love them frozen with a cold glass of milk, plain and simple works for me.
Yes we buy 12 boxes of the Caramel delight and freeze 21. We also buy 12 of thin mints and the lemon drops.
Thin mints on s'mores instead of chocolate is the BEST THING EVER! That idea came from girl scout camp. Also... Does anyone else remember when each cookie had one name and not multiple depending on bakery, shortbread was called Trefoils, caramel delights were called Samoas, peanut butter patties were called Do-si-Dos, peanut butter sandwiches were called tagalongs and they looked different, the amount of lemon cookie types and names we've gone through. I was a girl scout, I've been in 2 states and they always had ONE name, now I keep getting different troops with different cookie names depending on which bakery supplies them and it's just so confusing. Like they're all girl scout cookies, why does each bakery have different names for the cookies?🤔🤨
Peanut Butter Patties are my favorite! Except where I live, they're called Tagalongs. Interesting fact about Girl Scout cookie names: The Girl Scouts contract with two different cookie manufacturers who make the same cookies, but use different names. So while your box said Peanut Butter Patties, if I ordered them where I live, they'd be called Tagalongs. The Caramel Delights are called Samoas. Shortbread cookies are also known as Trefoils, and Peanut Butter Sandwiches are also called Do-Si-Dos.
I was wondering why they didn’t say Tagalong or Samoa!
The peanut butter patties are called Tagalongs in Georgia as well! Those are my favorite too!
haha, I just made the same comment 😄
I am still laughing at the little girl 2 years ago whose mother pasted ilprints of Jason Momoa on her Samoa boxes and called them Momoas...
Do-Si-Dos are my favorite
My sister was a Girl Scout (well Brownie) and one year we were the cookie house cuz the normal cookie family couldn't do it that year. There is nothing quite like seeing your dinning room filled floor to ceiling with girl scout cookies and knowing you can't eat them. Being the cookie family is a lot of work, props to the ones that do it every year, we never wanted to do it again lol.
I love thin mints, and also the peanut butter cookies you liked too. Really can’t go wrong with Girl Scott cookies. Very high quality. They are expensive though, so this was VERY generous of your contributor! In the last few months I discovered the nacho cheese bugles and LOVE them too. And the chocolate covered pretzels are great, my favorite being the white chocolate though. This guy who sent you this had great taste, this is high quality snack food!
in America, we wear the bugles on our fingers..just a fun way to enjoy the snack.
Americas favorite finger hat.
Im from Canada and have never had BUGLES before since they arent as widely available here but now I have two bags sitting in my room waiting for me to try them in one of my upcoming taste testing videos. Im excited !!! Ill make sure to remember to put them on my fingers in the video LOL.
I like the original Bugles the most.
@@michaelbrian6564 Im so excited cause im about to try the original and the nachos bugels for the first time ever in one of my taste testing videos !!!
Only children in the US , put bugles on their fingers , at least here in Vermont.
Also, try putting your Thin Mints in the freezer, which makes them so refreshing. This is my favorite way of eating them.
Done that same thing for over 30 yrs
Yep, same. Whenever I get the mint chocolate cookies from WalMart, they immediately go in the freezer, and I'll just pull out a couple intermittently.
😊👏
Also a glass of milk for dunking!
Pro move putting them in the freezer 👌
I'm 45 yrs old and I was in the Girls Scouts when I was a girl. I was also my own Troop leader for a few years and I loved it.
Dad's initial reaction to the Samoa's (the caramel delights) is my reaction every time lol
Also, a snickerdoodle is a common kind of homemade cookie in America.
Snickerdoodles are probably my favorite cookie, YUM!
Samoas, Thin Mints.. Peanut butter fudge bars!! OMG When I Pull into my Local Store and SEE it's THAT TIME OF YEAR!! Hooray!!! (I Become a Drift Car Racer, Just to PARK,,) lol
Congratulations on such beautiful, well behaved kids🙂
And dog!! He was a good boy around the food.
They really are great kids
I was “COOKIE MOM” for our daughters Girl Scout troop for 5 years….. huge job, but so much fun! We love Girl Scout cookies in US. In season you can’t enter or exit a local grocery without the girls outside selling their delicious cookies. Great video! ~Cara 😊
That's the months I don't shop
@@FirstNameLastName-wt5to Every year that is not a pandemic year, they have set up a table inside of the dorm where our cafeteria is, just outside the cafeteria doors. Brilliant marketing!
Im from canada and I wish we had girl scout cookies here for me to try in my taste testing videos !!! We have Girl Guides of canada and they only have two cookies as far as I know.
@@Sudas80 🤣
so true, i refer to them as my cookie dealer.. LOL
As a former Girl Scout, I love the caramel Delites or (Samoas in some states) and the Thin mints. A nice trick with the Thin Mint is to put them in the freezer. They are so good cold! Thin Mints and also good with ice cream.
In Ohio, they are Somoas.
When I was a girl scout in the mid '60's, there were only 3 cookies available (at least in my area), Thin Mints (my mom would freeze them), Shortbread (Trefoils) and my still favorite, peanut butter sandwich (Do-si-dos) and sold for 50₵ a box, which was quite expensive even though the boxes were larger. I have hard time remembering when they go on sale and since I'm retired, I don't get them from coworker's daughters anymore.
Oh no! You need to write that on your calendar! They're sold outside almost every store in my area (some stores even let them set up inside) so it's hard for me to miss them.... And buy all the thin mints.
Wow. I remember the same and also remember people thought 50 cents a box was outrageous.
@@debcollins8231 Yeah, that's right (we thought so too).
@Carrieann McLeod I remember when the Do-si-dos were still called "Peanut Butter Round-ups"-I loved both those and the Shortbread (thin mints were okay), but I've just never really gotten into the "new" flavors. :-)
now there like 5 dollars a box
Dr pepper was invented in Texas in a pharmacy back when there were old fashioned sodas where they would add the syrups to the carbonation by hand. The inventor put every syrup available in the shop, cherry being one of them. The 23 on the packaging is in reference to the syrups used.
Ashley I'm old enough to remember and to have enjoyed the old fashioned soda fountains! The desegregation of them in the 60s was a pivotal part of the Civil rights movement!
@@oldfogey4679 Your name gave me a smile. While I am fairly young (30), it has been said that I have an old soul. I think I would have enjoyed living during that time. Minus the segregation bit. I've always thought it was a terrible thing.
Yes. Originally (the syrup) was used for medicinal…digestion, I believe. There is a Dr. Pepper museum in Waco, Tx. I can’t remember the whole story, been too long since I’ve been there.
@@KendraYKnight yes I knew dr pepper was a Texas drink! Just like coke came outta Georgia! Where did pepsi originate?
@@oldfogey4679 South Carolina
Y’all are such a wonderful family. It’s really nice and refreshing to see a nice family.
And they seem so genuine and very close. They are my favorite CZcams family. 💕
Hi, I'm from Connecticut and I just want to say that I found it interesting that except for Thin Mints, the cookie you got are named differently then from Missouri. Caramel delites ( I say caramel like you guys do ) are called Samoas, the shortbread ones are called Trefoils, The peanut butter patties are called Tag-a-longs, the lemonades are designed differently and called Lemon-ups, the peanut butter sandwiches are called Do-si-dos and I personally haven't heard or tried the other ones. Samoas, Trefoils, Tag-a-longs and Do-si-dos, if I remember correctly, have been that name since as long as I remember and I'm in my 50's. Must be a marketing thing.
The girl scouts changed the name to several cookies. Same cookie, different name.
It depends on which baker the local Girl Scout council has the contract with. Girl Scouts of Maine where I live has the contract with ABC cookies, so in Maine I'd find the line of cookies featured in this video. However, if I jumped the border to New Hampshire, the council there is contracted with Little Brownie Bakers, and they have the trademark for the cookie names you mentioned. In addition to differences in names, the cookies themselves are slightly different. For example, thin mints from ABC are solid chocolate in color, and the last time I got a batch from LBB, the cookie inside was beige. Additionally, each baker is required to have the standard 5 flavors of thin mint, caramel coconut, shortbread, and the two peanut butter varieties, beyond that they can put out 3 unique flavors that season.
There is a site that gives the regional names of Girl Scout Cookies.
They have the same names you listed here in Texas. ;-)
Ditto.. I Caught that as well..
18:45 I loved it how the dog just appeared out of the snacks. I found it quite great.
Loved the dog getting in on the action👍
That's what she said!
@@MrParkerman6 Dude... family channel
He is too cute :)
Jack Links makes a teriyaki flavor that's my favorite flavor. Walkers shortbread is the only good brand we have access to here. Girl Scout cookies are basically a yearly fund raising vehicle. Some types are better than others, but the exclusivity of being available only for a short time every year makes them that much more special to us enthusiasts :)
I love watching these so much! But it's bittersweet because it makes me miss my family on the north island. Miss and love you Giffins❤
The Girl and Boy Scouts Do Alot OF Charity Work We Love Their Orange Sugar Cookies And CARAMEL PEANUT CLUSTERS
My daughter is a girl scout and every cookie season when they sell these we end up with a whole case or two of each cookie then mom and dad gain 5lbs each in a short amount of time. Good stuff 👏
When I was in Iraq, my roommate's family owned a beef jerky company. I got to eat free beef jerky the entire time I was there because they kept sending him care packages.
My favorites are Peanut Butter Patties and Thin Mints. Girl Scout Cookies are only sold for a few weeks in February each year and a good amount of the profits are given to each troop.
My mom, may she RIP, was a troop leader for me and my sisters decades ago and each winter our family room would be chalk full of Girl Scout cookies and tons of cardboard boxes that we would fill with orders from church friends, family, my parent co-workers, neighbors, and teachers.
Thanks for providing a bit of nostalgia for us.
My mom was a troop leader too but it was when we were stationed in France -Air Force brat - and my sister and I ALWAYS had to be in full uniform. We had a sister troop of French Girl Scouts that we had many activities with, very fond memories and they LOVED our cookies 😊
I have fallen in love with this family. They make me so happy. :)
The Thin Mints are best when kept chilled in the freezer! Also in ice cream.
Oh also from Missouri here too!
@@TheSeidnernin then it should be spelled and pronounced Missoura 😉🙃
@@cmgeisleman9438 well I'm in southwest Missouri... Springfield...most people say it normal like here lol
Aaron I was married to a Okie that lived around them parts, just saying it how she did...
@@cmgeisleman9438 Of course! I have family in Oklahoma they all say missoura! I love it.
Guys! Thin Mints in the freezer. PERFECTION!
🤫🤫 don't tell all the secrets🤣🤣 Girl Scouts Rock
You guys rock. Great choice sending girl scout cookies Charles a true American tradition. Much love and respect from Chattanooga TN.
Who would have thought that watching a video of people tasting food would be SOOOOOOO entertaining?
I'm not sure how I stumbled on your channel, but I'm glad I did. I am really enjoying watching you all experience some of the different flavors of our country. I was stationed in Europe when I was in the Air Force and I had the opportunity to visit many countries. I always enjoyed trying the different foods. My favorite food to try were the different breads. But here in the United States, every state that you go to is like visiting a different country because every state has their unique tradition. And with tradition, comes EXCELLENT food. I'm from New Mexico, and we have a completely different type of food, some of which is not recognized in any other states (& New Mexican food is different than Mexican food, although we do share a lot flavors)
It is very touching to see all the generosity some folks here in the U.S. have. There are a lot of great people here in the U.S. who are kind, caring and generous. But we do have more than our fair share of the opposite kind as well.
Enjoy and keep having fun & making videos. They are great. If ever you are in New Mexico, send me a message
FIrst off... Everone on this side of the screen watching y'all could actually taste the cookies you were eating.. we knew you would not like the shortbreads.. or the peanutbutter after you ate the chocolate peanut butter one.. the thin mints I would give a second look at.. Put them in the freezer.. and try them with our with out milk the next day.. its a treat.. Well done.
I thought the same thing! 😅
Im from canada and I wish we had girl scout cookies here for me to try in my taste testing videos !!! We have Girl Guides of canada and they only have two cookies as far as I know.
Thin mints are by far my favorite!!!! I always stock up every year!!! I can eat a sleeve in about five minutes without even thinking about it lol 😂❤️
I’m so happy you guys loved the Tagalongs aka the peanut butter patties. I used to be a Girl Scout and I’ve sold and bought so many of those boxes. It’s an addiction. 😂
The dog is too cute!! He loves his doggy treats!! So very thoughtful and nice to include the dog because he's definitely a part of the family!!!
I’m definitely a peanut butter patty person but my husbands fave are the caramel delights!
Same with me and my husband.
Here in the New England area they are called Peanut Butter Tagalongs
Didnt they used to be called samoas or something like that?
Definitely throw those thin mints in the freezer! Love the videos!
For me it was the audible crunching noises...and honesty in ratings (thumbs & words). Nuttin' like being genuine.
I have been a Girl scout leader for 7 years. Before that I was in for a few years. I now have a total of 25 years in girl scouts. There are 2 different bakers for gs cookies. A BC bakers and little brownie bakers. We have sold Girl scout cookies for 106 years. 😊
the peanut butter and chocolate kind are my favs!!!! My husband loves the Samoas, and we love the thin mints too. We are BEEF JERKEY FANATICS!!!!!!!
Tagalongs FTW!!!
@@Kulanae lol agreed, with ice cold milk ; )
Sweet Baby Rays Honey Bbq jerky is by far the best imo.
@@bradkirchhoff3751 I didn't know that existed! I have the barbeque sauce. I will look for the beef jerky. Thank you. Have a great day!
Im from canada and I wish we had girl scout cookies here for me to try in my taste testing videos !!! We have Girl Guides of canada and they only have two cookies as far as I know. Im actually planning on doing a whole video trying that same brand of beef jerky !!!!
The dog is excited about the beef jerky too! 😂😂
My daughter was in Girl Scouts for 10 years n I was the troops cookie coordinator. I still buy their cookies every yr. and give the boxes as a gift.
Girl Scout cookies are an American right of passage. At a certain time of year, young female scouts show up at shopping centers via grocery stores all over the country...selling those cookies!!!
Absolutely the best
you are gonna LOVE the Girl Scout Thin Mints!!!! they are legendary here in the US
That was so cute having your dog surrounded by all the goodies. 😊
As someone from Missouri I’m happy that no one said Missouri wrong and called it misery. Nobody talks about us so I’m glad we get some attention.
Watching your family is one of the highlights of my day. Your children are well mannered and adorable. I love your dog. What kind is he ? He reminds me of a whippet. Well you have a lo
If ya'll still have those Thin Mints around, I highly recommend freezing them, then consuming. It's my goto Girl Scout Cookie and my preferred way to go about them.
🇺🇸🥳 thank you for turning a lousy day into a great afternoon.. thank you for sharing your family with the rest of us🇺🇸👍🏼👊🏼 Albuquerque New Mexico love
Love your family!!! Blessings from Southern California.
Whoever sent this... you're an amazing person
Yes well done!!!!
Such a sweet family. Such a lovely wholesome bunch. I love your videos.
cookies! haven't had them in years (Diabetic) but I do have a box about to be on its way to you guys of some of my favorites, as well as yours, to review/enjoy!
Thanks Rusty!
I'm diabetic. To hell with it, I eat what I want. I've got insulin and Metformin to help manage my blood glucose.
I was a Girl Scout leader for years and my troop sold Girl Scout Cookies every year. They are only sold once a year and are very sought after. My troops sold hundreds of boxes a year. A semi truck would deliver them to us. The Tagalongs(peanut butter ones) and the Thin Mints(mint ones) are the most popular with the coconut coming in third!!!! Enjoy!
Looking forward to seeing you in 2023 BLESS YOU STAY WELL AND HEALTHY ENJOY 👍🌹🍒💎🙏 RESPECT
i found your channel last week while recovering from surgery for the last month BUT can I just say. Im obsessed!! you guys are such a cute family!! im from America so watching you guys do this and other reviews and the fun stuff you guys do is awesome to watch!! Ive binged watched and subscribed. Thank you and keep it up!!
Same here. Such a wonderful tight knit family. I juts found them the other day but have been thoroughly enjoying several of their episodes now as it's been so refreshing from all of the NASTY NEWS AND CONFLICT on TV right now. Covid, Covid, Covid, blah, blah, blah. Thank You Sam and Nadine for sharing your sweet family with us
Any chocolate covered cherry anything is too sweet to me.
3 - 2 - ONE! That was so, so cute! I loved it! I’m so happy that the generous sender included Thin Mints in your goody package! They are probably the most popular Girl Scout cookie.
I suspect that the coordinators of most Girl Scout cookie sales would confirm with actual numbers that the Thin Mint is indeed the most popular.
I also like the Samoas (AKA, "Caramel Delights"?)...
As a former leader I can confirm that Thin Mints are the #1 cookie! Girls sell as many Thin Mints as all of the other flavors combined. Our orders tend to be 50% thin mints then the other 50% divided by the popularity of each cookie (Samoas and Tagalongs come in at 2nd and 3rd for popularity).
My daughter was in the girl scouts. I still support them every year as they sell their cookies in front of the markets and banks. My favourite is still the mint and the peanut butter.
As an old girl scout, the best combos I know about the cookies are frozen/chilled thin mints (which are great on their own) and a different one where you take two lemonades and put a marshmallow in between the cookies, icing side down facing the marshmallow, and put it in the microwave for about 15-30 seconds; it tastes like a lemon meringue pie! There used to be a similar "hack" with Thanks A Lots (a cookie similar to the lemonades but with chocolate on the bottom and different languages saying thank you on the cookies) for girl scout marshmallows. That is, if you can manage to get your hands on any more girl scout cookies, I would definitely recommend trying the chilled thin mints!
The girl scouts only sold these once a year, so this person loves your channel seeing how well planned out this package was. Especially since the thin mints and Samoas (caramel delights) are usually the fastest to sell out next to the peanut butter patties.
Hearing anybody say our cookies are worthy of a double thumbs-up is a great compliment!
You’re a very gracious family, I hope you can enjoy much more of the silly treats we all love in America. Girl Scout cookies are like drugs, and I have to say no to drugs, but my favorite are the Peanut butter sandwich. They remind me of Nutter Butters which are my drug of choice. 😉 Have you ever had the Nutter Butters? Do they sell those in New Zealand? 🇺🇸 💕 🇳🇿
Started in the brownies and moved up from there. Back in the day we sold door to door taking orders and then returning to deliver when the cookies came in.
Im from canada and I wish we had girl scout cookies here for me to try in my taste testing videos !!! We have Girl Guides if canada and they only have two cookies as far as I know.
That is how we did the cookie sales when I was in GS, too. I was in GS for 10 years, Brownies through Seniors. Girl Scouts Forever. :)
My sister was a Girl Scout from 1st grade through high school and my mother was her Girl Scout leader in elementary school so we always had Girl Scout cookies in the house. The peanut butter patties are by far my favorite ❤️! Whoever sent you a box with various Girl Scout cookies was absolutely on point for treating you to purely American 🇺🇸 snacks as they’re huge here with some 30-50% of all girls selling them at some point. Two of my sister’s girls are in Scouts now so I still have my direct line to Girl Scout cookies!
Every girl scout cookie u were gifted are wonderful deliciousness! Peanut butter cookie and caramel delights yum!
I was a Girl Scout as a kid then was a leader when my girls were Girl Scouts. Seeking cookies is their biggest fund raiser every winter. Thin mints are my favorite and the lemonades. They try to have a new cookie every year.
Cherry mash has been around for a long long time. My mom loved them.
They should have frozen a stack of the Thin Mints for a future video.
Im from canada and I wish we had girl scout cookies here for me to try in my taste testing videos !!! We have Girl Guides of canada and they only have two cookies as far as I know.
care-a-mel and car-muhl pronunciation is split in the US. Both are used in different places.
Grew up saying car-muhl, moved east and now I say care-a-mel
Just like "pee-cans" vs. "Peck-ons" for pronunciation of pecans. Just depends on who you're talking to. 😉
I say both. For example, I wouldn't say "cahr-a-mel" corn....it's always "cahr mul" corn.
@Jenn M
NO! Peck is WRONG!
@@MrParkerman6 It's a variation acceptable to the other option
My Granddaughter has been a Bluebird,Brownie,and a Girl scout for years,she sells hundreds of boxes of cookies every year.My faves are the Thin Mints and the Samoas
I absolutely love the dog. poor little fur baby
I know! Me too 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰👏👏👏
buggles we use to put them on our fingers as a kid like finger nails then eat them off Today, Cherry Mash remains the Chase Candy Company's best-selling product. It is still produced in a factory in Saint Joseph, Missouri, and can be found throughout the Midwest in most grocery and convenience stores and mass-merchandise outlets.
Im from Canada and have never had BUGLES before since they arent as widely available here but now I have two bags sitting in my room waiting for me to try them in one of my upcoming taste testing videos. Im excited !!! Ill make sure to remember to put them on my fingers in the video LOL.
I'm from Maryland and I've never heard of Cherry Mash.
@@Laura-vj8uu that cause is a candy only found mostly in the mid west like here in Missouri where it is made
You gotta put the bugles on your fingers to have witches claws
I just moved from Cameron to St. Joseph Mo. I have granddaughters in Girl Scout's in several troops around Missouri! YAY Girl Power!!
I have no idea why I love your family so much. Keep doing what you do.
Wow, I’m from Missouri as well! It’s crazy just a century ago we would never have been able to accomplish sharing anything like this with each other. Greetings from St. Louis and best wishes to you and your incredible family!
Ther my great friend was from east st Louis! He always called Missouri misery! He said i left misery and brought my misery with me meaning his wife! So I'm guilty of mispronounced ur states name! Some say Missoura is this correct? I've been to st Louis and really like Missourians!
One key difference from a century ago is the long distance flight needed to deliver that box from Missouri to New Zealand. And speaking of the history of long distance flight- the name of your city plays a role “The Spirit of St Louis”
@@oldfogey4679 Our state was named after the Missouri Indians who lived here. Since all of them are dead, no one actually knows how they pronounced it. I was told "There is no misery in Missoura" but you can pronounce it any way you choose. I have noticed country folk usually say Misery and city folk often say Missoura. Fun fact: St Louis is in the growing cusp and can successfully grow northern and southern plants, so have more variety of plants than anywhere else (hence why we are first on the allergy list in Spring!). It is why the Danforth Center to end world hunger is here. BTW East St Louis is in Illinois, not Missouri.
I’m from Southern Missouri (from SE, but mostly grew up in SW), lived in small towns my whole life. I naturally say Missour-ee, not Missour-uh. Though when I’m watching Mizzou, I say Mizzou-RAH!… Or, more so lately, “son of a #$&@%”.🤦🏻♂️
@@matthewcall3961 my friend says I left misery meaning Missouri and brought my misery meaning his wife with me! I always said miz zour ree! Is this right? I've heard people from Jefferson city say miz zour ruh I've visited st Louise in 1965 and think I've passed through there in 08? But don't remember much about the state! I did help a friend be buried in Missouri! He left young was a roamer but considered the state home!
Hi from California! 🙋
In regards to the girl scout cookies I really like the lemon ones, but the thin mint is my favorite! Some people put them in the fridge or freezer yummy! They sell out of those so fast tho since they only come around once a year people tend to buy a few boxes. They now sell ice cream with the cookies. Hope you enjoyed another American treat! 😁
I just love and adore that you guys are so observant of all the little details each package comes with. It just goes to show how much you truly appreciate your packages, and no doubt means alot to the sender. It's always a pleasure watching you experience American culture. 😊
First off I’m from Missouri as well and I just absolutely love your guys videos! Ok so you may know this by now but a potato skin is a whole potato cut in half with a filling in it and sometimes it’s baked again. It may have cheese, bacon, chives, butter, sour cream. And those tgi friday chips are just in the flavor of a potato sling from tgi Friday’s!!!
So the potatoes are usually baked until the middle is cooked through, then you scoop out the filling of each half of the potatoes and combine all of your ingredients in a bowl, mix it together, then put it back into the potato. Now you can stop there or you can put the potatoes back into the oven to cook more!
My daughter was in the Girl Scouts. I have sold many boxes over the years. The lemonade cookies are my favorite 😊
Those are so dang good. Always was pissed as a kid, the girl scouts had awesome cookies and all we had in boy scouts was the overpriced popcorn.
Im from canada and I wish we had girl scout cookies here for me to try in my taste testing videos !!! They all sound and look delicious . We have Girl Guides if canada and they only have two cookies as far as I know.
I sold Girls Scout cookies for years when I was a scout. They freeze great since they are only sold twice a year. Once in Fall and once in Spring.
I love that you still try the ones you don't think you will like. Sometimes you like it and sometimes you don't, but at least you're willing to try. I think the purpose of selling the Girl Scout cookies is printed on the boxes. If you didn't read it before you got rid of the boxes, you might want to look it up online.
I was a girl scout. Now I support my niece by buying cookies every year to help support her troop. I favor the thin mint and lemon while my husband loves samoas.
Aww love how the doggie has treats to eat too 😍
I really like you guys. You’re such a nice family. I’d love to send you something uniquely American, but it seems like you’ve already gotten most everything.
Cherry Mash is the best! I'm 68 and my father used to bring me and my brothers one each. He would be gone for weeks out of state working and we really looked forward to him coming home and then in his hard hat, he had the Cherry Mash candy for us! It was good times.
I was my niece’s GS troop leader for a few years, I was in charge of our troops cookies and my nieces ended up eating an entire case of cookies. In my area Caramel Delites are called Samoas and the PB Patties are called Tagalongs.
Girl Scout cookies are a national treasure. They’re only available seasonally, so we buy them and freeze them. Out of season, people pay top dollar for GS cookies, up to $50 per box!
Out of season,when buying them will not benefit GS's, go to Aldi and try their imitations. Some of the flavors are very good.
I've never paid $50 per box for GS cookies. Now I have bought over $50 worth. Can't wait for the middle of January when our troop start selling them
They were a treasure but as the years have gone by it has become a scandal. The local troops do not get as much financial support from the sales and they have lowered the cookie count to around 25 for $5.00. It was meant to teach kids to organize, accounting, sales and responsibility. Now it is forcing quotas and pressuring parents to sell for them. Many offer prizes for sales but they are only obtained if parents set it all up so kids get credit for set ups at malls or the office sales and the kid wasn’t even involved. It’s basically a racket. They are failing our youth for a hidden agenda of profit.
My favorite part was watching the pup get some treats!
Me too! He's one beautiful pup.
I started out as a Brownie and advanced into Girl Scouts. Loved selling Girl Scout Cookies that we sold in my days from door to door. Back then we only had four flavors now they are sold in front of stores. Still love them all.
That haircut looks good on the dad, it works for him I think. And of course the kid has the same haircut, awesome! Both those kids are adorable. Love Atlanta's Kitchen too!
It's nice to hear a package from a familiar town. I live less than an hour from Cameron and lived a few of my grade school years there.
I was a Girl Scout and did my fair share of selling these cookies. They’re only sold a couple months a year and as you guys quickly discovered, they’re delicious! So, many Americans are very excited for Girl Scout “season”. My favorites are the peanut butter patties and caramel delights! I like the Thin mints too but I have to be in a certain mood to snack on mint flavored stuff.😊💜
Girl Scout cookies season is something Americans look forward to almost as much as Christmas
Beautiful family 😍
