Cookie News! Girl Guides of Canada has the following statement on trans fats. Girl Guides of Canada (GGC) is aware of health issues surrounding particular processed foods, including cookies, and is committed to maintaining the quality of Girl Guide cookies while keeping these concerns in mind.

Currently, saturated fats are the only viable alternative to trans fats in biscuit-type foods and any reformulation in the trans fat levels of Girl Guide cookies will result in a different taste and texture. GGC is currently investigating reformulation options with Dare Foods Ltd. All options will be examined to ensure that Girl Guide cookies maintain the taste, texture and freshness consumers expect and enjoy, as well as a nutrition profile that adheres to new regulations.

We sincerely appreciate your comments and your support of Girl Guides through cookie purchases.
