Get extra pumped, Celiac disease-havers and/or trendy food diet types! There are gluten-free options!
Girl Scouts of America experimented with their first batch of gluten-free shortbread cookies in select markets last year. This time around, they’re going whole hock with the first ever gluten-free flavors in the organization’s 98-year history to be sold on a national level: Toffee-tastic, “buttery cookies with toffee bits,” and Trios, “peanut butter, chocolate chips and whole grain oats.” Sorry, did I see the words “toffee bits” just now? I think the taste receptors in my brain temporarily short circuited the entire operation just now so I might have been briefly mistaken. Nope, there it is. Toffee. Bits.
The third new flavor for this season isn’t gluten-free, but sounds just as delicious: Rah-Rah Raisins, which according to People Magazine is “an oatmeal raisin cookie with whole grain oats, raisins, and Greek yogurt-flavored chunks.” Y’all, I don’t even like raisins and I am on board for that.
And don’t worry if you aren’t acquainted with any little girls that you can steal buy from this season—remember Girl Scouts is also offering their very first online sales this year. Yup, you don’t even have to leave the house for toffee bits. That feels like it should be illegal.
