New "Lo-Cal" Girl Scout Cookies Featured in the New York Post


The New York Post featured our new "Lo-Cal" Girl Scout Cookies in today's paper. In the article they highlight the success of the Girl Scout Cookie Program including it's efforts to respond to customer demand by offering 100 calorie packs.

What do you think? How are the new Cinna-Spins? Should Girl Scouts keep moving in this direction? Let us know!

We didn't have Cinna-Spins in our Cookie Sale, but definitely think that anything Girl Scouts can do to encourage healthy choices is a HUGE step in the right direction!

The Cinna-Spins were great! It was a great idea and one that should be a new tradition for the girl scout cookie sales. Lets face it, with childhood obesity on the rise, the girl scouts don't want to be seen as a cause. This allows moms to feel more comfortable about buying the cookies that they are helping to sell. I don't know that they are really any better for you than the other cookies, but with them being idividually packaged, it helps with portion control.

We didn't have Cinna-Spins, we had the sugar free chocolate chip.

Girl Scouts needs to introduce a cookie that is safe for the many many people with food allergies. Every cookie in our council this year contained milk. How incredibly shortsighted in an organization that prides itself on being inclusive.
