I don't eat them because I read the labels. Packed with hydrogenated fats and HFCS, and long list of corn derivatives that aren't really food, they simply are unhealthy.
"a term combining the words “nutrition” and “pharmaceutical,” is a food or food product that provides health and medical benefits, including the prevention and treatment of disease. Such products may range from isolated nutrients, dietary supplements and specific diets to genetically engineered foods, herbal products, and processed foods such as cereals, soups, and beverages. With recent breakthroughs in cellular-level nutraceuticals agents, researchers, and medical practitioners are developing tempates for integrating assessing and assessing information from clinical studies on complimentary and alternative therapies into responsible medical practice.[1] The term nutraceutical was originally defined by Dr. Stephen L. DeFelice, founder and chairman of the Foundation of Innovation Medicine (FIM), Crawford, NJ. [2] Since the term was coined by Dr. DeFelice, it's meaning has been modified by Health Canada which defines nutraceutical as: a product isolated or purified from foods, and generally sold in medicinal forms not usually associated with food and demonstrated to have a physiological benefit or provide protection against chronic disease. Examples: beta-carotene, lycopene [3] The definition of nutraceutical that appears in the latest edition of the Merriam-Webster Dictionary is as follows: A food stuff (as a fortified food or a dietary supplement)that provides health benefits.[4] Nutraceutical foods are not subject to the same testing and regulations as pharmaceutical drugs.[2] The American Nutraceutical Association works with the Food & Drug Administration in consumer education, developing industry and scientific standards for products and manufacturers, and other related consumer protection roles. The FDA provides a list of dietary supplement companies receiving warning letters about their products."
In most of the "Midwestern" states (Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Indiana, etc) there is Meijer Grocery Store, where there is a Meijer brand version of most of the more popular Girl Scout cookies. VERY good imitations!
I don't eat them because I construe the labels. Crowded with hydrogenated fats and lasting listing of grain derivatives that aren't truly nutrient, they but are windburned.Now if they victimised realistic Lover Scouts in the mix...

Even I did not know it was an actual word.
Thanks for the explanation :-) I thought I did not know because English is not my mother tongue

Same price as the real thing?
Yep. I ordered three boxes and a few days later I ordered three more. This years batch seems more chocolatey and less minty.
