The time of year has finally arrived when Girl Scouts across the nation will be out in droves selling boxes of their beloved cookies. However, this year's cookie lineup may come as a disappointment to customers craving new flavors of the seasonal sweet treats.
Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) just announced the start of the 2024 Girl Scout cookie season, which typically runs from January through April each year. This year's Girl Scout cookie selection contains many of the varieties fans already know and love, like Samoas, Thin Mints, and Tagalongs. However, the 2024 cookie lineup doesn't feature any new flavors.
This is the first season since 2018 that GSUSA hasn't introduced anything new for fans to try. So, those who've come to expect exciting new flavors each year may be disappointed by the lack of fresh options.
The popular Raspberry Rally cookie is also noticeably absent from this year's lineup. GSUSA introduced the online-only flavor for the 2023 season and it became an instant hit. Boxes reportedly sold out within hours and later popped up on resale sites like eBay for wildly inflated prices.
Despite its popularity, GSUSA did not bring back the Raspberry Rally for 2024 in order to "prioritize supplying our classic varieties," the organization said in a statement to CNN.
