GIRL SCOUT COOKIES
Troops eliminate trans fat
NEW YORK — For much of the country, it's Girl Scout cookie time again. And this year, all those cookies, not just the Thin Mints and a few others, will come nearly free of harmful trans fats.
The change reflects a movement by the scouts in recent years to add an element of health consciousness to their annual bake sale.
The Girl Scouts have marked their 90th year in the cookie business by getting most of the artificial fat out of all varieties of their iconic treats, which had been under attack by a few health-focused consumer groups.
This year, about half of all Girl Scout troops are also offering a sugar-free cookie called the Little Brownie. A cookie with reduced saturated fat, the Cartwheel, was also introduced last year.
Tinkering with a popular recipe is something no cook does lightly, and Girl Scouts of the USA Vice President Denise J. Pessick said the
changes were only made after the two commercial bakeries that make the cookies found trans-lat alternatives that didn't compromise flavor, texture or shell life.
Pessich said she was confident tans would notice few differences. The recipe changes have also given troop leaders an opportunity to talk more about the importance of eating right, Pessich said.
"They know that, for one thing, you need to make informed choices. You need to read labels," she said.
In making the adjustments, the scouts are following other manufacturers who rid their products of trans fats after the Food and Drug Administration began requiring food labels to carry information on the substance last year. Scientific studies have linked trans fats to heart disease.
The first "zero trans" Girl Scouts cookies made their debut in the fall of 2005, including a reformulated version of the top-selling Thin
Consumer, reaction is still developing. Most troops take their orders in January and begin deliveries in late February or early March.
Mint. The remaining varieties had most trans fats eliminated by last October.
"People are saying, 'It's about time'," said Ho. "Everybody is conscious of the trans-fat issue... My own sister used to rub me in the ribs sometimes and say, When are you going to go healthy?"
But — taste aside — the initial feedback has been positive, said Anna Hho who organizes sales for Troop 805 in Paspanyev, N.I.
The scouts have been careful not to bill the updated cookies as health food. Even with the changes, most varieties are still high in sugar and saturated fat.
"Like any snack food, you talk about moderation." Pessh said. "We know we aren't selling broccoli."
