Confession: I bought a box of Tagalongs yesterday and I have eaten 2/3 of the box. I'm thinking about having them for dinner. How are they just SO GOOD? Do you want to be the most popular person at work? Bring in a cookie order form, or better yet, just boxes of cookies.
Are they so good because they aren't available year round? Because the teach girls about financial literacy? Because they are filled with butter and sugar? Probably the latter, but I'm going to say it's a combination of all three.
The Girl Scouts is an amazing organization. It's been around for 100+ years, there are 2.3 MILLION girl members at this very minute, 60% of women in the House of Representatives were Girl Scouts, I was one, and it provides girls with an opportunity to learn all sorts of life skills- everything from cooperation and team work to, the less useful (until you really need it), turning pants into a flotation device.

Every year, those 2.3 million girls are learning about business during the cookie selling season. (And make their neighbors incredibly happy at the same time) This year a Girl Scout in San Francisco learned the power of location while selling cookies. Granted, the Girl Scouts weren't too excited about her choice of location, but you do have to applaud her business sense.
Long story short, Girl Scout cookies are delicious and I'm going to eat them for dinner.
Also, don't go around making your own Girl Scout cookies, you heathens.. It ruins the magic and RUINS AMERICA.
