The Web has been abuzz since Monday after a commenter on Reddit shared a photo of a Nestle Crunch Girl Scout Candy Bar comprised of Thin Mints, with speculation as to whether the treat was real or just a cruel joke to tempt our taste buds.
TODAY.com got the exclusive news from the Girl Scouts that yes, Virginia, there IS a Thin Mints candy bar! But don’t clear out pantry space for these chocolate goodies just yet. Turns out the average cookie monster won’t be able to get their hands on the bars, described as "dark chocolate cookie wafers and mint chocolate creme, topped with airy crispies," for a few months.
“We are thrilled with the positive response to the Nestle Crunch Girl Scout Candy Bar,” said Joshua Ackley, a spokesperson for the organization. “The product photo is a retail sales sample and not available for sale at this time. Look forward to some very exciting news in June.”
When we asked about whether other Girl Scout cookies would get the chance to star in a candy bar, based on the “Limited Edition Cookie Flavors” stamp, we were told it was a "surprise." Imagine a world where candy bars were made with Samoas!
Are you excited about Girl Scout candy bars? Which flavor would you want?
