Why are Girl Scouts cookies all different names and why do different troops sell different kind of cookies?

Question

Every time I buy Girl Scout cookies they are a different name then the last time and then the last time I bought them, and everytime I order they don't have the same kind of cookies....do different troops get different cookies??

Answer 1

Girl Scouts often have "booth" sales, where they take cases of cookies to a location with them and sell to passersby. Troops order all their cookies in advance, usually a month or more in advance, so they may run out of some cookies early in the sale. Some troops may have more of one kind of cookie than another in their stock, so they may be selling more of that particular kind that day.

As for the names, there are several different cookie companies who bake these cookies, so the names may vary with the company. Also, in addition to a few standards (like Thin Mints) Girl Scout cookies change some from year to year as tastes of the customers change.

Answer 2

Girl Scout Cookie boxes are bold and bright and capture the spirit of Girl Scouting. Introduced in the fall of 2000, these boxes clearly show girls having fun and growing strong. The licensed bakers produce a maximum of eight varieties, including three mandatory ones (Thin Mint, Peanut Butter Sandwich, and Shortbread). All cookies are kosher.
Girl Scout Cookies® had their earliest beginnings in the kitchens and ovens of our girl members, with mothers volunteering as technical advisers. The sale of cookies as a way to finance troop activities began as early as 1917, five years after Juliette Gordon Low started Girl Scouting in the United States. The earliest mention of a cookie sale found to date was that of the Mistletoe Troop in Muskogee, Oklahoma, which baked cookies and sold them in its high school cafeteria as a service project in December 1917.

In July 1922, The American Girl magazine, published by Girl Scout national headquarters, featured an article by Florence E. Neil, a local director in Chicago, Illinois. Miss Neil provided a cookie recipe that was given to the council's 2,000 Girl Scouts. She estimated the approximate cost of ingredients for six- to seven-dozen cookies to be 26 to 36 cents. The cookies, she suggested, could be sold by troops for 25 or 30 cents per dozen.

In the 1920s and 1930s, Girl Scouts in different parts of the country continued to bake their own simple sugar cookies with their mothers. These cookies were packaged in wax paper bags, sealed with a sticker, and sold door to door for 25 to 35 cents per dozen.

Men aren’t “supposed” to seek out advice on how to get women or ask their friends how do I get a girl. We don’t sit around analyzing each other’s relationships. Still, picking up beautiful women is a skill that anyone can learn with enough time, practice, and access to the right resources. Read here https://tr.im/DNtbL

Answer 4

different location, different sponsor, also if you bought them at different times. for girl guides in canada for my area. what happened was mr.cristie was unable to make our cookies anymore since they were no longer peanut free (i blame this on the peanut butter oreos), so we had to switch companies which tottaly changed our cookies...our branch sorta fell apart the next yr due to lack of leaders so i have no clue how the new ones tastes like but the old ones were delish!

Answer 5

They are made by different local bakeries so the names are different. What we call Caramel Delights here in Central Illinois my sister in Minnesota calls Samoas.
