A couple of years ago, a Girl Scout approached me in front of a Von's in La Habra (at least I think it was Von's - I don't remember) and was looking really, really sad. Her head was down and she lifted a can and asked me, 'Do you want to buy some Girl Scout Nuts?'
'Girls Scout nuts?' I asked her. 'You got shafted.'
'I know. Our troop is trying something new.' she said looking incredibly embarassed.
I bought a can of peanut brittle or something from the table she was running with her mom. I don't remember ever eating it, it's probably still in the back of my friend's car...
I just thought that was totally funny. Girl Scout nuts. No cookies. Nuts.
True story.
