Because our namby pamby government put regulations on what can be offered because of allergies. I loved the peanut butter ones.

Technically the USA based girl scouts is attempting to learn how to run a business.
The variety is apart of running a business.
As a example. Baskin Robbins ice cream stores don't have just one or two flavors. Nor does McDonald's have just one or two products.
The more variety the bigger the business to a certain extent.

True. Did you know Golden Oreo and FudgeeO are the original Girl Guide cookie recipe?

@Jeephikelove I didn’t know that!

That's because you're not as decadent as we are. In Russia they only have squid flavor!

Well chocolate mint is THE most important one, so worry not, Canada isn't really missing anything with the other flavors.

As an ex-Girl Guide and self-reformed pole dancer myself with a host of credible references to my credit, I can tell you first hand that I scored a cookie factory tour for my Girl Guide troupe after writing a letter 20 years ago to the President of Dare Cookies, which is a Canadian-owned cookie company and requested that same information you now ask about!
Here's what we all learned that day as we showed up at the factory on a school bus in our Girl Guide uniforms in Kitchener Ontario Canada:
The reason Canadian Girl Guide cookies are different than American Girl Guide cookies, is because of the Patented cookie content and the Patented design of the cookie itself on ALL Canadian Girl Guide cookies, which are only available in Canada and are not available for export to the USA.
The Canadian Girl Guide cookies actually have Girl Guides Canada embossed on the surface of each cookie, which is an International Patented design idea, whereas American Girl Guide cookies are generic in appearance and content and bare no reference at all to Girl Guides USA.
The Canadian Girl Guide cookies are made from pure, natural ingredients and contain NO preservatives at all, which means they have a 90 day shelf life, as opposed to generic American Girl Guide cookies which do not contain pure, natural ingredients but do contain enough preservative to give each box a 5 year 'best before' date on each package, similar to that of maraschino cherries.
Canadian Girl Guide cookies only come in two flavors, plain which is available from March until June each year and mint flavored which is only available between October and December each year, both flavors marking the time of year they were made for, to better identify old stock and have it removed.
Canadian Girl Guide cookies are provided to Girl Guides Canada FREE of charge by Dare Cookies of Cambridge Ontario each year and always have been free. This is done in support of Girl Guides Canada for them to make more money when selling those cookies expense-free, because they have no overhead expenses to cover first.
American Girl Guide cookies are made by the lowest bidding cookie manufacturing competitor in the USA who will supply those generic cookies, which means they take whatever flavor is available at the time, hence the perceived choice of variable flavors compared to Canada.
This also means Girl Guides USA has to first purchase those cookies with a contract before receiving them from their cookie manufacture, which also means their organization must incur high overhead expense before the first box of Girl Guide cookies is actually sold in the USA, thereby exemplifying America's version of cut-throat Capitalism at it's finest.

@Motzu I do not know about the boy scouts but the rest, yeah that is true.
I think now they just loiter by the entry of big box grocery stores trying to sell.
With work places, I imagine corporations probably decided it was a "conflict of interest" even though girl scout cookies have nothing with whatever stores are selling.

@Motzu they finally figured out that it's easier to sell them standing at the entrance/exit of places like wal-mart, lowes, etc. than trying to chase people down on the streets...
@wildbill83 I'm a regular shopper of walmartd through the Ohio Valley, and never see them. I think little girls are extinct or something.
