Satisfy Your Girl Scout Cookie Cravings Year-Round With This New Yogurt!

Satisfy Your Girl Scout Cookie Cravings Year-Round With This New Yogurt!

You can finally feel a little bit better about your decision to have Girl Scout cookies for breakfast, because they now exist in yogurt form! Yoplait has just announced the launch of three new yogurts inspired by the most popular Girl Scout cookie flavors: Thin Mints, Peanut Butter Chocolate, and Caramel Coconut. Instead of devouring a sleeve of cookies in just a day or two, we think we might be excited to reach for these instead.

The new yogurts come in two textures: the Thin Mints and Peanut Butter Chocolate flavors are Yoplait Whips!, meaning they have a fluffy mousse texture. The Caramel Coconut flavor is a Yoplait Original yogurt, so it's more smooth and creamy. The best part is these Girl Scouts-approved yogurts aren't a limited edition — they're here to stay. The three new flavors will hit store shelves starting in December, and all of them are now permanent, year-round additions to the Yoplait lineup. Excuse us while we go stock up to satisfy our cravings until Girl Scout cookie season officially starts!

Girl Scout Cookies will now be purchasable in yogurt form.

The treats, through a partnership with Yoplait yogurt, will now be available in Thin Mints, Peanut Butter Chocolate and Caramel Coconut flavors.

For purists, Peanut Butter Chocolate appears to be roughly analogous to Tagalongs, while Caramel Coconut appears similar in flavor to Samoas.

Yoplait is releasing three Girl Scout Cookies-inspired flavors this month. They are Thin Mints, Caramel Coconut (similar to Samoas) and Peanut Butter Chocolate (similar to Tagalongs)

'For those who wish they had more ways to enjoy their favorite chocolate mint, peanut butter chocolate, and caramel coconut flavors, we have three delicious, new yogurts inspired by America's most popular Girl Scout Cookie flavors,' said Doug Martin, the business unit director of Yoplait, in a press release.

The cookies will be available beginning this month and are a permanent addition to Yoplait's brand.

Barry Horowitz of Girl Scouts of the USA said: 'Beyond the delicious flavor, the yogurts will also remind consumers everywhere of the power of Girl Scout Cookies

The Thin Mint yogurt will have a mint chocolate flavor, the Peanut Butter Chocolate kind will have a peanut-buttery profile with a chocolate finish and the Caramel Coconut will be smooth and creamy, per Yoplait's analysis.

The Thin Mints and the Peanut Butter Chocolate will be available in 4-ounce cups, and the Caramel Coconut will be available in 6-ounce cups.

All of the flavors are gluten-free.

Barry Horowitz of Girl Scouts of the USA said: 'Beyond the delicious flavor, the yogurts will also remind consumers everywhere of the power of Girl Scout Cookies. 

'The cookie program is the largest entrepreneurial training program for girls in the world, and we are pleased Yoplait is working with us to share the message about the program and the impact of Girl Scouts with even more families in America.'

Yoplait previously tried out a caramel coconut flavor in 2015 that was not related to Girl Scouts Cookies.
