Are GIRL SCOUTS trying to kill us?

Indisputable that almost everyone considers drug dealers and cigarette manufacturers to be some sort of "killer" who capitalizes on human weakness and addiction. What about those lovable little scouts who will be coming to your door and enticing you with Samosas and such? These "cookie-pushers" are not only adorable children, and dutifully supporting their fine organization, but while they are selling these yummy cookies with their peanut butter, chocolate, and tons of carbs, do they ever consider that they are causing obesity and type 2 diabetes in the unsuspecting? To the carbohydrate addicts of the world? Among the merit badges and patches on their uniforms is there one that says "the Surgeon General has determined that eating Girl Scout cookies can give you a fat ass and a heart attack?" or "If the full feeling you get after eating a box of chocolate chip cookies lasts more than 4 hours, call a doctor?" I doubt it. Another hidden danger of modern society and a potential windfall for personal injury lawyers. I can see it now... The guy who advertises on TV for asbestos and mesothelioma buys an ad that says " Have you ever eaten a Girl Scout cookie and are you fat, diabetic, or ever had a heart attack? Then call our law firm at 1-800-8cookie and we can make you rich. Non-attorney spokesperson."

  1. Ahh, the sweet temptation of a girl scout cookie. The good news is that you can also get your cookie fix in ice creak form: http://www.dreyers.com/brand/funflavors/flavor.asp?b=1421&f=2805
