    If I was buying mystery boxes of mystery shit on the deep web and ended up with a box of girl scout cookies I wouldn’t even be mad.

      That’s the genius of it. Oh, my box is Thin Mints? Cool! Especially when you have had a few days to think of all the worse things it could have been.

      Are girl scout cookies always the same or does it depend on where they come from? I’ve seen them in just about every American sitcom/animated sitcom ever and I’m just curious if they are a specific brand or something else?

        There are two manufacturers of Girl Scout cookies in the US. They’re roughly a West and East manufacturer. Their cookies taste subtly different–unless you have sensory integration disorder like my sister and have tasted the difference her whole life and then deep dived into it in her early 20s and felt very vindicated when she found out there were two distributors and no she wasn’t crazy that whole time and just tasted that almost impossible to detect difference.

        They’re all the same.

        “Girl Scout Cookies” is a brand of its own. They’re mostly pretty good too. I’m a samoa guy, when I can be talked into spending way too much on cookies where the actual local scouts don’t really see enough of the funding from the sales.

        I’m not a fan of the organization. The cookies though, they’re legit.
