Vegan Girl Scout Cookies Exist
February 15, 2014
Did you know that vegan Girl Scout cookies exist? Yes! Four varieties, too.
Here is the scoop on vegan Girl Scout cookies. ABC Bakers and Little Brownie Bakers are the only two licensed Girls Scout bakers in the country. Little Brownie supplies most of the east. None of the Little Brownie Bakers cookies are vegan. Unfortunately. All of those nostalgic varieties–read: Samaos–are not-vegan. But the ABC Bakers, who supply the west coast, have four varieties: Thin Mints, Peanut Butter Patties (just like Tagalongs), Thanks-a-lot‘s, and Lemonades. So where does a vegan score these cookies from the west? Ebay, of course.
I was really excited to try the Thanks-a-lot, chocolate-dipped shortbread. They tasted reminiscent of Keebler‘s Fudge-striped cookies, which I loved growing up.
Then there’s the Peanut Butter Patties, the vegan Tagalongs. Chocolate-covered vanilla cookie and peanut butter. A yummy bite of nostalgia.
The last variety is the Lemonades. Vegan cookie dipped in lemon icing. I can’t believe I’m eating Girl Scout cookies!
