PSA: Aldi Sells Copycat Girl Scout Cookies All Year Long
For a few glorious months each year, you can spot troops of green-vested girls outside grocery stores selling Thin Mints. Do-si-dos, and all your other Girl Scout cookie favorites. The rest of the year, GS Cookie cravings can only be soothed with limited-run products, when they happen to be in stores. See: Girl Scout cookie ice cream, cereal, coffee, and yogurt. Or so we thought.
On a recent trip to Aldi, my world was rocked when I noticed an entire row of cookies that looked pleasantly familiar. Turns out, Aldi makes its own version of some Girl Scout staples: Caramel Coconut, Fudge Mint, and Peanut Butter-filled cookies. While they don't have knock-offs of every cookie, if you're a Samoas, Thin Mint, or Tagalong fan, you'll be on happy camper.
As for the caramel coconut cookies, they taste just like the real deal with the same shortbread cookie, caramel and chocolate drizzle, and coconut flakes combination.
The boxes cost between $1.39 and $1.45, which is even less than a GS box. Though that's not to say that we shouldn't still support the Girl Scouts come cookie season, especially since proceeds go back into their leadership programs! Plus, nothing beats a Girl Scout S'mores.
