Should girl scouts sell healthier foods than cookies?

Girl Scouts are selling more cookies than ever, as they have increased cookie varieties and easier ordering. They are a critical fundraiser for the organization. People who buy them know that sweets are best in moderation. I buy fewer each year as the cost of the boxes goes up and as I avoid bringing these into my home for dietary reasons.
