Lament for Dulche de Leche

I am going to have to cross State Lines to buy my favorite cookie; Dulche de Leche :-(

(PS. On reconsideration, Thin Mints with Diet Coke are probably my real favorite).

NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- It's that time of year again: Girl Scout cookie season. But some cookie monsters won't be able to get their favorites.

The Dulce De Leche and the Thank U Berry Munch cookies are being pulled from the menu in various cities across the country, according to Michelle Tompkins, spokeswoman for Girl Scouts of the USA.

The group's most popular cookies -- Thin Mints, Samoas, Tagalongs, Do-si-Dos, Trefoils and Lemon Chalet Cremes -- will still be available everywhere.

The great cookie massacre is happening as part of a pilot program in 12 regions to cut down the cookie menu. Girl Scout councils don't want to have to deal with a surplus of less popular cookies.

The areas that will be going without include parts of New York City, Atlanta, Oklahoma, California's Central Coast and Virginia's Chesapeake Bay region.
