Thin Mints, Lemonades, Peanut Butter Patties, Toast-Yays! The menu of vegan Girl Scout cookies may be scant, but for fans of non-dairy options, this week is a time for celebration. There’s a new planet-friendly cookie in town.

Say hello to Raspberry Rally, a sister to the ever-iconic Thin Mint. If the buzz is any indication, this chocolate-coated crispy raspberry cookie is sure to inspire a similarly cultish following.

Gone are the days of makeshift tables outside your favorite grocery store—at least when it comes to this of-the-moment cookie. Raspberry Rally is only available online (starting January 10, 2023), the better to provide an opportunity for members to ramp up their skillsets in e-commerce.

But worry not: Community is still at top of mind for the Scouts. The organization encourages participants to support their local landscape through service work, while instilling leadership qualities to help the younger generation step into power and effect change.

In terms of furthering sustainability in other ways, Girl Scout Merchandise and Properties has created a roster of goals that include maximizing the energy efficiency of its distribution centers, supporting safe and empowered workers, reducing waste, and raising awareness.

Which brings us back to the cookie. While you crunch on one (or, let’s be real) several Raspberry Rallies, why not ponder your own environmental rallying cry. Once snacktime is over, go ahead and shout your message from the rooftops.
