Anonymous Coward User ID: 11995231 Poland 01/16/2013 11:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | For all of you who do not know and would like to know... Girl Scout cookies do contain gmos and high fructose corn syrup. Information easily attainable from their website. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14873148 [link to www.girlscouts.org] "Are there GMOs in Girl Scout Cookies? Our bakers determine whether to use genetically modified agricultural crops (GMOs) in Girl Scout Cookies based on a range of market-related factors. There are some conventional ingredients, such as sugar, which are most prominently available in the United States as GMO. Our bakers are industry experts and have brought their experience and knowledge to the forefront on this topic, and they actively follow the science. For the time being, we feel confident in the safety of all the ingredients in Girl Scout Cookies, including GMO ingredients. It's important to note that there is worldwide scientific support that there are no safety concerns with the currently commercialized ingredients derived from genetically modified agricultural crops (GMOs) on the market—the World Health Organization, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, and the American Medical Association all share this assessment. In addition, in the future, GMOs may offer a way to help feed an ever-increasing world population." "Is high fructose corn syrup used in Girl Scout Cookies? Our licensed vendors use a variety of ingredients in the production of Girl Scout Cookies, including, in some cookies, high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). Our bakers have indicated that HCFS is a specifically helpful ingredient in the browning process, and helps cookies retain freshness. For those cookies where HFCS is used, our bakers indicate that it is a key ingredient in ensuring the quality of the cookie. As leaders in the baking industry, we trust our bakers to develop recipes using ingredients that will produce the best quality, best-tasting cookies while simultaneously address industry trends, scientific trends, and of course, consumer preference. For a list of specific cookie ingredients, please see Meet the Cookies." I implore you to not support this organization as it supports Genetically Modified Organisms. Thank you for your time and understanding. Really, nothing to do wth your day but to come to this dopey site and beat up on girl scouts and their cookies? You are a miserable fuck! |

Actually I care about my body and future generations. I have already been harassed twice today about buying cookies. I feel others deserve to know before they are lured into unsafe food. Enjoy your gmos and hfcs? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 28604765 United States 03/07/2013 10:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I really don't care, because I love Thin Mints and Do-Si-Do's, I was a Girl Scout as a child, and I fully support the initiative. I'm still friends with my former Girl Scout Leader (she's a Reiki teacher in Canada now), and her daughters and I grew up together (and are still friends). I'm more worried about air and water quality than I am whether a few cookies I eat a year have HFCS and other GMO's. |

Glad you're finally admitting to what a piece of redneck shit you are! At least you acknowledge it is a joke, I swear some of you idiots have no sense of humor whatsoever. I never forgive and I never forget I am a licensed firearm holder. I will, under protection of law, use lethal force if attacked. |

Yeah, you, Sandusky, and the entire Catholic church have the same sense of humor. The cannibal thing? Well, I guess someone has to like dark meat. :/ |
