Frankly, they just don't taste as good as they used to and I just am not that interested in eating them. My husband bought that box and I just stuck it in there as a way to store it. I should have gotten it out for Valentine's Day.

I think it may be why I bought so many boxes this year. They usually snarfed them down but they are both in college now. They'll keep until the summer.

When the friend asked what kind I wanted, I said I didn't even want to see them. I can't afford the calories, might as well be eating sugar cubes. I reduced my A1C from 10.7 to 6.6 in three months by avoiding empty calorie bombs. My favorites were the Peanut Butter Patties and the Caramel DeLites (Tagalongs and Samoas if you live where cookies are given meaningless names).

So I'm incapable of saving them, and actually think that them getting smaller might not be a totally bad thing.

I preferred the mint when I was younger. but ever since they discontinued Lemon Coolers at the store, I buy them from the GS.

They don't last very long when I get them.
