How Many Calories Are in Your Favorite Girl Scout Cookies?
The Girl Scout Cookie season is in full swing, bringing tons of tasty treats that test how strong your willpower truly is. The siren song of the Do-si-dos coming from the pantry has led many to the bottom of an empty box in record time, baffled and slightly afraid of their own appetite.
But we would never tell you to ditch Girl Scout Cookies completely. I’m pretty sure that’s been scientifically proven to damage the soul. But seeing how many calories just a couple of these cookies can pack might make you think twice before going elbow deep into a box of Samoas — just sayin’.
Make sure to pay close attention to the serving sizes of each cookie variety, because they vary. For example, the Shortbreads will give you a tad – I repeat, a tad — more freedom to eat guilt-free than the Tagalongs. Please do not take that as a blessing to inhale a few dozen Shortbreads with no remorse. Consume with caution.
And note: the Girl Scouts haven’t forsaken the gluten-free and vegan eaters among us. They’ve made sure to include plenty of vegan and gluten-free options, too!
