Like a favorite color, music album, or TV drama, what we like often sheds some light on our personality. Yet, does the same hold true for what we like to eat? While we could categorize such preferences in terms of favorite comfort foods, snacks, and sweets, with the Girl Scout cookie sale season commencing, why not analyze our favorite seasonal cookies? Below are some possible ways these cookies show off people’s personalities.
Thin Mints
If you stock up on Thin Mints then you might be unwavering in your preferences. Just like the cool minty flavors of the cookie, you may take a while to warm up to new people. Still, when you do, you are extremely loyal and trustworthy as a friend, partner, or business partner. The deep chocolate and cool mint flavors reflect a sense of sternness, hardworking persistence, and diligence.
Samoas/Caramel-deLites
Are Samoas your go-to cookie? Then you are curious, quirky, and energetic. You’re not afraid to zig when other people zag, and trying something unknown comes with little worry. Coordination isn’t a concern; you go with what you like despite its contrasting nature. Your positive energy is like a magnet to people who may make you the center of the party.
Tagalongs/Peanut Butter Patties
When you reach for a box of Tagalongs, then you’re reaching for some steadfast security. Like cozy fuzzy pajamas or your favorite pint of ice cream, you gravitate to things that feel secure and intuitive. Just like the smooth chocolate coating on the outside of the cookie, you wrap yourself with an outward appearance of cool reservation. However, underneath, there’s a layer of spunk and sass (just like the peanut butter layers) waiting to be let out in front of a close group of friends.
Trefoils
If Trefoils are your thing, you’re the definition of a person with a little black dress. Timeless classic elements are your mainstay. The people who know you know get you. While you like attention, you don’t find yourself clinging and grasping for center stage. The trends may come and go but the way you carry yourself with a sense of poise is a fashion statement all of its own.
Do-Si-Dos/Peanut Butter Sandwiches
When you round up a box of Do-Si-Dos as your tried and true Girl Scout Cookie, then you’re straightforward in any situation. No other flavors like chocolate get in the way of your direct unfiltered opinions. You’d rather be honest than a kowtowing yes-man, with you there’s smoke and mirrors.
Adventurefuls
If Adventurefuls have become your new go-to, you may have a tinge of adventure that goes beyond the cookie itself. For you, the answers no or impossible are not in your vocabulary. Every setback is a new way for you to try again on a different road. When there’s a new haircut or new style of jeans, you’re the first to try out the trend. While you might put off other more introverted people, you attract many like-minded individuals for exciting friendships.
Lemonades/Lemon-ups
A bite of citrus features two times in the Girl Scout cookie lineup and if either Lemonades or Lemon-ups are your go-to cookie contenders then you are juggling two sides of a coin. On one hand, you’re traditionally pragmatic, and goal-oriented. One the other hand you are also a go-getter in social circles, able to chat up a storm with anybody. Your creativity is always cutting edge, just like a sharp bite of citrus zest.
Toffee-tastics
If Toffee-tastics are a tour de force of deliciousness in your book, then you are a complexity of traditions and mold-breaking. Unlike the sassy alternative ways of Adventurefuls, you keep emotions, ideas, and opinions on the down low. You don’t like rocking the entire boat. Instead you interject small bits of sass to mix the scene up with things like a dry cutting comedic punchline or a spot-on observational insight. At first glance, you don’t raise eyebrows but when you let your guard down, you’re quite the riot!
