Amador County – Despite some persistent rumors, cookies being sold by Girl Scouts in our region are not affected by recent reports of substandard cookie quality, according to a release from the organization. The statement says Girl Scout Cookies sold locally were not obtained from Little Brownie Bakers, which recently recalled batches of its Lemon Chalet Cremes cookies after consumer complaints that the cookies had an odd smell and taste. According to a press release on their website, the Louisville, Kentucky-based company found no traces of bacteria. “Certain lots of Lemon Chalet Crème cookies contain oils that may be breaking down which can result in an off taste and smell,” the statement said. None of the other famous Girl Scout Cookie favorites were affected. The Girl Scouts Heart of Central California serves more than 30,000 girls and 10,000 adult volunteers in 18 counties including Alpine, Amador, Calaveras, Colusa, El Dorado, Glenn, Mariposa, Merced, Nevada, Placer, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Solano, Stanislaus, Sutter, Tuolumne, Yolo, and Yuba with the corporate office located in Rancho Cordova.
