Van Dewald, a freshman accounting major from Alexandria buys several boxes of Girl Scout cookies from
Brownie troop 252 outside the Cather-Pound dining room.
DeLites
Sometimes the strangest com
binations make the best sheet
fellows. Case in point: Caramel
DeLites Girl Scout cookies.
A melange of chocolate, cara
mel and coconut covering a
crunchy cookie, Caramel De
Lites aren’t exactly the most
pleasing things to the eyes.
They’re square, lumpy and
brown with caramel stripes on
top.
Don’t judge it by its lack of
physical appeal The taste makes
up for it and then some.
What a mellow flavor. Taking
a bile, there’s the slightest
crunch, then the taste sets in
l he creamy chocolate and ca«a
mel are* complemented by a hint
of coconut flavoring
They’re pretty sweet -- as
most good cookie-* are out not
sickemngly so And how thev
managed to escape: being gooev
remains a mystery; it can either
be attributed to lots of chemicals
or a great deal of planning — or
maybe a little of both, but who
cares?
These scrumptious little
munchies are worth trying.
Weight watching? No problem -
they’re only 60 calories a pop.

Although the packaging was
confusing, an obnoxious purple

inside that counts.
As the package is opened, the
