A few months back, Food World News reported the new Girl Scout Cookies 2015 flavors, including Rah-Rah Raisins and Toffee-Tastic, kicking off the new season of the famous cookies to Katy Perry's delight - however, news regarding the large cookie industry sold by adorable little girls seems to point out that things aren't as innocent as they seem.
Over the course of the weekend, two big Girl Scout Cookies 2015 stories came out: the first one regarding the fact that one of the Girl Scouts was a victim of theft as she was making a sale ... and the other one sees workers for cookie factories complaining that they fear for their job stability while the factories overwork them.
The first bit of Girl Scouts 2015 news states that, according to the Bay Area NBC, a ten-year-old Scout called Sophia Contos was in front of a San Jose, California, grocery store alongside her troop when a man took her sales' cash box from her hands.
It's not literally taking candy from a child's hands, but it's near enough.
However, as Mercury News reports, the girls are well trained and wouldn't take that kind of abuse, so they quickly recorded the license plate of the person who had stolen from them and called the police, explaining the Girl Scout Cookies 2015 situation to the authorities, as they called to attempt to regain the box that contained about $600 that was to be used for a project on water conservation.
Not all things are clear for Girl Scout Cookies 2015, though, as USA Today reports that a number of employees in one of the factories that make the famous cookies have spoken out to say that they're forced to work long hours (plus a schedule from six to seven days a week), or otherwise face being fired.
"It feels like we're indentured servants," said one of the workers, with a paycheck of $16 an hour, to the outlet about the Girl Scout Cookies 2015 factory situation. "It's really gotten worse in the last year. They keep saying it will get better, but it never does."
