Would you consider boycotting Girl Scout cookies because AOC was a Girl Scout?

i always wondered about american girl scouts.... what do they actualyl do other then making cookies ? we got mixed scout groups for kids here and we never were baking cookies. we were in the woods camping, hiking, learning how to make a fire etc

@Marceline Hehe 🤭
Selling cookies is their major fundraiser so they can do things like camping and stuff.

@SimplyTracie are those actually made by the girls or is this just a brand name and they sell them ?

@Marceline I think there are two companies that make it for the scouts.

@SimplyTracie During my training as a process design engineer I had the job of building a 'sandwich cookie' making production line. It was kind of neat getting the vibrators timed just right to make the biscuits fall from their trough to the conveyor belt at exactly the right time.

@hippyjoe1955 I think those machines are the most amazing I’ve ever seen.

Timing, precise temperatures, all of it amazes me. But I’m a simple person and simple things in life are truly amazing. 😊

@SimplyTracie It was fun designing the system then fine tuning it to give a flawless product.

@hippyjoe1955 How do you even conceive the concept? I mean, forming the ideas is genius. Even if automation has been around, it’s still unique for your line.

@SimplyTracie I started by playing with strobe lights and vibrating surfaces. Under strobe lights you can see the waves move across a surface. From that it is just a matter of choosing the right vibrator to give you the right linear motion.

@hippyjoe1955 Yeah, I’m not doing that. Even if it’s raining, I’d rather be outside. I’m so glad there are designers like you. Happy 😊
