This is a very
popular cookie, espicially in my household, and I know very few who actually do not like them.
It would appear that the Girl Scouts have made some changes to the cookies since the ABC site of December, 2000. So here, since the latest batch of cookies has been delivered, is the spring, 2001 ingredient listing and nutritional information.
