Girl Scout cookies are a tradition that has been ongoing for more than a century. According to the Girl Scout website, members first began baking the cookies at home in 1917 before selling them to raise funds for their programs. Over the years, Girl Scout cookies have expanded into the in-demand brand they are today.

Typically, Girl Scout cookies go on sale anywhere between January and April, and consumers across the country eagerly wait to get their hands on the best Girl Scout cookies om their favorite flavors. This year the Girl Scouts launched a new flavor, Raspberry Rally, which is said to be like a ‘sister’ cookie to Thin Mints. Although the cookie is new, it’s already become a huge hit, especially in states like New Jersey, Maine, and Alaska! Thanks to Google, we can tell you which cookie is searched the most by state, and you may be surprised to see that one flavor, in particular, has fans nationwide!

Adventurefuls

Are you like many Americans and list the yummy Adventurefuls as your cookie of choice? The brownie-based cookie that’s topped with caramel cream and just a hint of sea salt was only introduced in 2022, but it already boasts a healthy following across the country. This tasty newcomer was the most searched cookie in the following states: California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Illinois, Mississippi, Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, Georgia, West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, Philadelphia, Delaware, New York, New Hampshire, and Hawaii.

The Girl Guide’s latest addition has already found plenty of fans across the country and has become such a hot item that it sold out online after its launch.

S’mores

S’mores may be a fireside staple during camping trips, but when it comes to the Girl Scout version, these tasty treats aren’t quite as popular. This flavor is the most searched cookie in just one state, Arizona, while a YouGov survey shows that only 3% of those asked list it as their favorite. More for the rest of us!

Lemon-ups

These crispy, lemony cookies that feature inspiring messages list South Carolina as the only state they are the most searched in. Like the S’mores and Lemonades, only 3% of those surveyed by YouGov rate these tangy treats as their favorite.

Peanut Butter Patties | Tagalongs

This one is somewhat surprising. Peanut Butter Patties, also known as Tagalongs, were listed as the favorite flavor of 10% of those surveyed, yet only four states list them as the most searched. The residents of Oregon, Iowa, Indiana, and Florida have shown their love of the chocolate-covered peanut butter treats.

Thin Mints

Thin Mints are almost synonymous with Girl Scout cookies, so it’s not surprising that they’re America’s favorite flavor. What is surprising is that only three states list it as the most searched. These crispy chocolate cookies dipped in mint-flavored chocolate have fans in Washington, Missouri, and Vermont.

Do men get paternity leave? Here’s what you need to know
We know women take time off for having a baby, but do men get paternity leave?

When a woman finds out she is pregnant, part of the initial planning is figuring out maternity leave, from when it will start to how long it will be. While we immediately think of the time the mom will take off work for the baby, what about the dad? Do men get paternity leave? Here's what you need to understand about dads taking time off work for the birth of a child.
If men get paternity leave, here's how they can take it

There are a few options for the dad to take time off work for the birth of a baby, and it's all pretty similar to how a mother would take maternity leave. There are types of leave dads can't take since they aren't the ones having the medical procedure or going through the actual birth, but there are some workarounds.
Take FMLA
FMLA (Family and Medical Leave Act) allows mothers, fathers, and non-birthing parents to take up to 12 weeks off work to care for a new child. The time off is unpaid, but your position will be there for you when you return. There are rules and stipulations to use FMLA depending on where you work and for how long, and you may not qualify to use it under certain conditions, so talk to your employer as soon as you find out your partner is pregnant to know your options. FMLA is amazing if you qualify, but please remember it is unpaid. 
Use your PTO and vacation time
Another way to take some time off (and still get paid for it) is to use your PTO and vacation time. The second you know your partner is pregnant, start saving up your time. Talk with your HR department to see how much time off you can stack together and see if they will work with you on how to best use your time. If you can't use it all at once, see about peppering days off throughout the week to get you down to only working one to three days a week so you can still be home quite a bit.
Use unpaid time
Another option is to talk to your HR department about unpaid time off. Depending on how long you have been with the company, you could be entitled to an extended unpaid leave or a sabbatical, or your work will let you take time off for certain things like a medical issue or the birth of a child. This is another unpaid way to take time off, so you need to plan appropriately.
