Carmel duhlites?!?!

First, it's a SAMOA, not that doppelganger. Second, it's a freakin cookie, why does it have to be "lite"? If you're counting calories, just cut down from two boxes to one (there was an understandable, but unfortunate misprint on the Nutritional Information Label on the boxes). Why suck the goodness out of the cookie? Where's the sense of personal responsibiitly here? Sh*t, if it's a problem for you, I'LL eat your other box of SAMOAS for you and save you from yourself.

Remarks from others who know the truth (and some bleating and grunting from others who somehow found their way to a keyboard).

BigV, I don't like them for their lite-ness. I like them because they're yummy. Plain and simple.

They make me puke too. And are especially horrid because of the additional temptation of chocolate and caramel and shortbread. They would have been FINE cookies without the coconut. The Girl Scout Mom at work leads off with ... well, I have lots of these but I know you can't stand them ...

If we had coconut flavored soap at work, I'd play the allergy card and demand it's removal.

Oh, and yeah, I think pickles are icky too.

Just for you, wolf, glatt. By the way, can I have your ration of Samoas?

staceyv 03-18-2005 04:30 PM

if you click on "shop in U.S. dollars" on that site, it appears to be FREE!!

There's a Jewish deli by me that gives you pickle wedges and ketchup to dip them in while you wait. :thumbsup: I prefer to dip mine in ranch. Seriously, ranch makes so many things so much better.

But since I'm lactose intolerant, I have to be careful.

Great link! I've been looking for something compliment my tuyo, daing, and inihaw na bangus. :biglaugha

I visited a friend a couple weeks ago and he has a friend that is some way hooked up with the trucking of Scout Cookies. There were several cases of cookies he was using as dog treats.
I took the case of deLites. :blush:

staceyv 03-18-2005 08:56 PM

tell your friend not to give his dog the chocolate ones- chocolate is toxic to dogs. Actually, what kind of friggin dog treat is any kind of girl scout cookie??

I just tried something that I thought would be gross. It turned out delightful. Heineken and chewy Werthers. Nice flavor.

I'm mostly indifferent to Ranch dressing--but sour cream, I could add that to ANYTHING. There's a hamburger place here that servers a swiss-n-mushroom burger with sour cream. They call it a Boodieburger. It is heaven. :yum:

Pickle juice is also used as a marinate for ribs before they are dry cooked (Memphis style). Deeeeeeeeeeeelicious!!!

i don't know why i keep visiting this thread... I've been sick for 4 days - mono for the second time since december and i always feel pretty bad after i read some of these. But granted, it's human nature to be drawn to gross stuff.

It's like the Saturday Night Live skit where the family is sitting around the table drinking the spoiled milk. Ewww... this is so gross - You try it!

wolf 03-19-2005 10:16 AM

Interesting insight.

Sour Cream is gross too.

Unless it's in french onion dip.

I don't know why it's acceptable in that form and revolting in all others.
