For better or worse Girl Scout Cookies have infiltrated our collective consciousness as a brand name. Last year Coffee-Mate partnered with the Girl Scouts in introducing Girl Scout Cookie-flavored creamers. Surely you've seen the commercials. Or perhaps you even bought one. The product, to my knowledge, contains the flavor of a Girl Scout Cookie, and not the actual cookies.

Tonight, Strickland's, one of our favorite ice cream shops, will introduce (for one night only) a Girl Scout Thin Mints-flavored ice cream. There's no partnership with the organization as far as I know; they're just making ice cream with it. And these, unlike the creamer, will contain actual Girl Scout Cookies.
Get it while they're hot…er, cold…well, you know what I mean.
