1917 was when they first started selling the cookies, but that started with only a few troops who were selling cookies that were baked back home. The first recorded sale was The Mistletoe Troop of Muskogee in Oklahoma some time in December of 1917. They were all home made until 1934, when a Philadelphians Girl Scout Council began to commercially bake and sell the cookies. Finally, in 1936, Girl Scout cookies went nation wide and are still freakin awesome to this day.

Mrs. Fields' Original Cookies, Inc. bakes and sells specialty cookies, brownies, pretzels, and other baked goods. From one store started by Debbi and Randy Fields in 1977, the firm has expanded to over 1,500 stores named Mrs. Fields' Original Cookies, the Great American Cookie Company, the Original Cookie Company, Pretzel Time, Hot Sam, and Pretzelmaker. This is a true success story of an American homemaker and her husband who overcame numerous obstacles to create an international business. However, like many companies that began as family businesses, it reorganized under outside leadership and ownership. The firm's Chocolate Chip Cookies were so popular that they became the subject of a modern urban legend in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
