Annie's Organic Graham Sandwich S'mores: I hadn't seen these sandwich cookies from Annie's before and decided to give them a try on my last grocery run. They are an instant guilty pleasure, with all the nostalgia of roasted s'mores. It consists of chocolate and honey graham crackers sandwiching a marshmallow-flavored creme. This is definitely one of the sweeter Annie's offerings I've tried, which kind of pushes it over the edge into junk-food territory even though the ingredients are organic.
