<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Call me the s\u2019more connoisseur.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve bought s\u2019mores in stores from shore to shore. Famous to obscure, I\u2019ve explored the s\u2019more tour.<\/p>\n More or less, I\u2019ve put s\u2019mores to the test, and yes, my rhymes ARE poor and in jest. This I confess as you snore unimpressed, I\u2019ll shut up and give you a score and ingest.<\/em><\/p>\n You know who I hate? Me. <\/p>\n You know who I appreciate? Those hard working Girl Scouts. They really know how to get my money, especially when they camp outside of supermarkets. Who would dare say no to America\u2019s second most intimidating Green Berets?<\/p>\n To celebrate 100 years of annoying office colleagues shoving order forms in your face, the Girl Scouts have blessed the world with a new cookie flavor \u2013 S\u2019mores. <\/p>\n Unbeknownst to me, there are actually two new S\u2019mores cookies available in select areas. The chocolate covered graham variety wasn\u2019t available when I was pressured into spending twenty dollars, so I went with the sandwich cookie.<\/p>\n Girl Scout S\u2019mores are described as \u201ca crunchy graham sandwich cookie with creamy chocolate and marshmallowy filling,\u201d so it tackles the three main ingredients of a standard s\u2019more. Does it taste like a standard s\u2019more? Ehhhhh.<\/p>\n The graham actually tasted more along the lines of a thin shortbread to me. Shortbread is probably my least favorite Girl Scout cookie, so I was bummed to be reminded of it.<\/p>\n The smell and taste instantly put me in mind of generic supermarket sandwich cookies. You know the ones that they toss on the top shelf that are two bucks cheaper than Oreo? The cookies there to make Hydrox feel better about itself? Those. They aren\u2019t the worst snack on Earth, but Oreo cookies are at eye level for a reason. <\/p>\n The marshmallow cream may have had actual marshmallow flavor, but really just tasted like standard white cookie cream. If you\u2019re jonesing for a cheap Golden Oreo with a little bit of chocolate cream thrown in the mix, these are for you. Sadly, the chocolate is also pretty generic.<\/p>\n S\u2019mores are obviously best when hot, so I nuked one of these in the microwave for 25 seconds. The chocolate got nice and melty, and the cookie softened a tad, but that\u2019s about it. The box gives no indication they\u2019re meant to be heated or anything, I just figured I\u2019d give it a try.<\/p>\n As a whole I wasn\u2019t blown away. It seems that most of the time brands try to emulate a s\u2019more they never really hit the bullseye. <\/a>Kellogg’s Smorez cereal is pretty good, <\/a>Oreo made a decent s’mores cookie, and Chips Ahoy <\/a>tried their best, but it\u2019s never the same as making a messy homemade s\u2019more over a flame.<\/p>\n My fellow s\u2019more connoisseurs will probably be pretty disappointed. Not quite as disappointed as they\u2019d be if I started busting out my bootleg Dr. Seuss rhymes again, but disappointed nonetheless.<\/p>\n I can\u2019t tell you NOT to try these, but you might want to just stick to the old reliables next time Heather from Accounting chases you around with a Girl Scout Cookie order form. Man, she’s pushy. Other people have daughters too, Heather!<\/p>\n Thin Mints are a classic. Samoas are too. Girl Scout S\u2019mores rank near the bottom of the product line. If the chocolate covered graham variety is available to you, spend your Abe Lincoln on those instead and let me know how they are. <\/p>\n Look, the sandwich cookies aren\u2019t awful. They\u2019ll do in a pinch, but compared to other Girl Scout staples they might as well be called \u201cB\u2019ores.\u201d (\u2122 Vin at The Impulsive Buy.)<\/p>\n (Nutrition Facts – 2 Cookies \u2013 150 calories, 7 grams of fat, 3.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 0 milligrams of cholesterol, 105 milligrams of sodium, 21 grams of carbohydrates, 10 grams of sugar (includes 10 grams of added sugar), and 2 grams of protein.)<\/small><\/p>\n Purchased Price:<\/b> $5.00 Call me the s\u2019more connoisseur.
