I used to LOVE Thin Mints but this year they don't taste minty or chocolate-y. They really kind of suck. The chocolate tastes fake, like Crisco, and the mint isn't minty enough. What do you think?

The Girl Scouts changed the recipes to eliminate trans fats in the cookies.

i agree!! the samoas (carmel, coconut cookies) don't taste right either. i think that with the rise in cookie sales they searched for a more effective and simpler recipe to make the cookies for very cheap (even though they cost an arm and a leg!!) and sacrificed taste. very disappointing. try freezing them or crumbling them up and using them as a topping for ice cream or as a crust for cheesecake. they taste alright that way.

We have TONS of them. I think they taste a bit different, but are still good. They took the trans fat out of their cookies & also came out with a fat free brownie. See link below.

I had to give them up due to the sugar content, but now I"m just sick hearing all the problems.
