Nestle is Making Thin Mint Cookie Candy Bars. Yes Please!

We need about 100 of these sent to the New Times office like right now (attn: Shannon Armour, please). We don't even care if it's an "Unholy Union" between the Girl Scouts and Nestle or if the Girl Scouts are "selling out," we just want to get our hands on...

We need about 100 of these sent to the New Times office like right now (attn: Shannon Armour, please).

We don't even care if it's an "Unholy Union" between the Girl Scouts and Nestle or if the Girl Scouts are "selling out," we just want to get our hands on a Thin Mint candy bar (and any other future Girl Scout cookie candy bars. Samoas? Tagalongs?).

Rumors of the alleged Girl Scout Thin Mint chocolate bars started making the interweb rounds recently with various sites questioning the validity of the possible marriage of the Thin Mint cookie and a Nestle chocolate bar. But the Huffington Post managed to get the whole story straight from the Girl Scout's mouth.

"We are thrilled with the positive response to the Nestle Crunch Girl Scout Candy Bar. 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." -- GSUSA via Huffington Post.

Thanks for making us wait till June, jerks!
