I just put in a request at Kroger because it's not been that long (I thought) since I last had them. Crap. Google also revealed that the Girl Scouts are selling them...which means I'll try the recipe above before I succumb to any little green cookie pushers. I also put in a request for Lemon Jumbles. I KNOW it's not been that long since I had those. *fingers crossed.* Ah, and here I am, too looking for Lemon Coolers.

I, too, get excited to find any resemblence to these cookies. TJs had some during the Christmas season 2004, but did not appear to stock them this past year. Here's a link to a recipe for the Sunshine Lemon Coolers: http://topsecretrecipes.recipecottage.com/sunshine_lemon_coolers.html I haven't tried it yet, but I hope it is what my taste buds have been craving.

Therefore, you will see more and more "Archer Farm" and other grocery products in standard Targets. There is a Trader Joe's in Cleveland. Not sure if they have Lemon Coolers. TJ sells "fair trade" cocoa, if you still feel the need to assault your taste buds. Target is moving (i.e. overextending) into the “Super-center” world following Wally World.

Good, but still knock-offs. McVitie's are the real deal. Carr’s are knock-offs. Good, but still knock-offs. McVitie’s are the real deal.

I will try these digestive thingies too though. The Carr’s wheat crackers are also graham-cracker like. I will try these digestive thingies too though.

Kind of like a graham cracker on steriods. Giant Evil even carries them now. I used to have to order Cyrus a supply, along with his marmalade.

Oreos used to be made with lard, so it used to be you could distinguish them: the ones that tasted good were the Oreos. But now they both taste terrible. Another thing to blame vegetarians for.

I get mine at Trader Joe's during the months when the girl scouts aren't selling theirs. Of course, I can't tell the difference between Oreo and Hydrox if they're not side by side, so what do I know.

No clue if they're the same. Apparently Girl Scouts are selling Lemon Coolers now. No clue if they’re the same.
