Art collective and fashion brand MSCHF introduces the [MSCHF Scout](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eat-the-rich-popsicles) Cookies, which is a satirical approach to the notable [cookie sales in American culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cookie-queens-documentary). These are a parody of the familiar names as it includes cookies such as "Peanut Butter Profits," "[Caramel Cashouts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/girl-scout-coconut-caramel)," and "Treasury Mints" to make fun of the capitalist ideals that are behind the snacks.

In terms of the packaging, it has a retro theme with commentary on consumerism lying just underneath. What makes the MSCHF Scout Cookies different as well is that the 'troop' is whoever purchases an entire sales kit. This is comprised of 528 boxes of cookies, which come in three flavors, and four replica Scout uniforms, rounded out by a Scout's Sales Guide.
