If you've ever tried a Girl Scout cookie, you know it's nearly impossible to decide which is the better biscuit of the wide assortment they offer, but the Girl Scout Cookie Sales infographic sets the scrumptious story straight. In a clever and mouth-wateringly cute twist on the standard pie chart, [Wired Magazine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfie-verification) has created a circle graph using cookie slices to show the popularity of each variety.

As a life-long fan of the [Girl Scout Thin Mints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thin-cookies-nyc), it's no surprise to me that they lead the cookie contest, with 25% of total sales. My two other faves rest at second and third place, with [Samoas taking 19%](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/girl-scout-coconut-caramel) and Peanut Butter Patties bringing in 13% of the savory sales.

I'm a sucker for cleverly designed infographics and a huge cookie enthusiast, so the combination of the two in this Girl Scout Cookie Sales pie chart is impossible to resist! Just like the biscuits they represent, the graph has something for everyone and will definitely put a smile on your face.
