    aha. I found this online...

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caramel_deLites

    Samoas or Caramel deLites: These consist of a circular vanilla cookie about 2inch in diameter with a small hole in the center, covered in caramel and toasted coconut and then striped with chocolate. This is one of the only cookies in the group that has differences depending on the bakery. The reason there are two names is because while similar, the cookies have some differences. Samoas are circular, with an orange colour and are thicker from top to bottom, usually they also contain more caramel per coconut. While, the Caramel deLites are actually hexagonal, with a more yellowish tinge, and a more of the biscuit comes through in the flavour because of the lower caramel content. Overall they are both very popular, and most people never notice the differences.

    Yay, I'm so glad it wasn't a stupid PC thing...hahahaha...I don't remember where I first saw the cookies and they were called caramel delites...but, I'm glad now to know they're actually slightly different. And, I'm not going crazy that there are actually two names.

    I don't know any girl scouts this year so I guess I'll have to make a trip to the mall

    My favs are the animal cookies that are dipped in chocolate on the backs. Yum! I try to only get 2 boxes a year though. And try to just eat one box and keep a box in the freezer for as long as possible. LOL Hard to do though!

    I really need to get myself some girl scout cookies, they are so delicious! My favs are peanut butter sandwich and thin mints. The low fat lemons are not too bad either.

    You thought what only happened in films?

    I thought the whole girl scout cookie selling wasnt real, do they make them theirselves?

    The girl scouts themselves don't...but, the organization has bakeries and that's where they're made. But, yeah, the girl scouts themselves sell the cookies.

    No girl Scout Cookies here either

    From our period in the USA ('83), I still remember those delicious cookies! Our friends daughter Erica was a girl scout and was proud she sold cookies to somebody all the way from Belgium!!
    Oh no.... I want Girl Scout cookies , NOW !!!!!!!!!!

    Thats weird that every state has different names for cookies and/or different cookies liike I have never seen the animal cookies dipped in chocolate and when we are selling them some people ask for them and I've heard of them. Over here in AZ we have Samoas, Thin Mints, Tagalongs, Cafe Cookies, Do-si-dos, Lemon Coolers, and Trefoils.

    My favorites are Samoas and Lemon Coolers. I LOVE Samoas. I don't think a girl scout cookie can beat them.
