Alton Brown, the star of ‘Good Eats,’ recently shared his ideal last meal on the podcast ‘Last Meals.’ His chosen meal would include a variety of foods, including lamb and seafood, as well as upscale offerings like a Port-soaked pear and Kusshi oysters served with white wine.
However, the TV personality also included one simple childhood favorite near the end: Girl Scout cookies, specifically Thin Mints. Brown told host Josh Scherer that Thin Mints would be part of his last meal, saying, ‘I remember being given my first Girl Scout cookie by Mom and thinking, ‘This is everything I want for the rest of my life.’
Brown even jokingly compared the Thin Mint to the Holy Communion, breaking it in front of the camera before taking a bite. He said, ‘To this day, even though the recipe has changed many times, this is my only connection left to childhood.’ Many viewers were touched by the way Brown spoke about his childhood favorite, with one commenter saying, ‘Alton speaks for America on this.’
