Somehow I’d got this far before finding out there was a real life animal called a pika. Not that Pokemon naming conventions are a thing I’ve given much thought to, but the world just made a tiny bit more sense.

Google is allowed in this game unless otherwise specified. I used Google on this one myself. We have Girl Guide cookies here in Canada but I don’t believe we have anywhere near the multitude of flavours. In fact I’ve only ever seen the mint ones here. A Google search confirms that only the chocolatey mint and the classic chocolate and vanilla sandwich cookies are available here.

I had to Google Girl Scout Cookies too. Haven’t seen any in decades.

Yeah, I put “ferret” for rodent, too. But hey, even in the real Family Feud, we don’t always get factually correct answers. “Paul” for one of the Apostles, for example.

Lucky you! I have 3 boxes looking at me right now and I’m not a fan. Any liking I ever had for them was permanently eradicated by being the mom of a Girl Scout, helping her to sell them, and, worse, picking up boxes from Girl Scout HQ and sorting and boxing people’s orders. All the individual cookie boxes are different sizes which makes them a royal pain when re-boxing. This happened 10 years ago but the trauma still lingers.

Are we at 49 entries now? Should we call on past participants and perennial winners like **swampbear**?
