[Girl Scout Cookies](http://time.com/4617635/girl-scout-cookies-smores-2017/) are beloved by people all across the country, but there are a few flavors of the [iconic snack](http://content.time.com/time/specials/packages/0,28757,2104472,00.html) that are much more highly sought-after than others.

A map created by product discovery and reviews website [Influenster](https://www.influenster.com/article/top-girl-scouts-cookies-by-state) shows which cookie is the most popular in every state, revealing that, unsurprisingly, [Thin Mints](http://time.com/money/4660153/girl-scout-cookie-top-sellers/) and Caramel deLites/Samoas hold the top two spots in America’s heart.

Thin Mints were the No. 1 overall choice, scoring the highest number of total votes among the 5,054 people polled and earning the most states. Caramel deLites were a close second while Peanut Butter Patties/Tagalongs came in third. The only other flavor to make the list was Do-si-dos/Peanut Butter Sandwiches, which claimed Vermont and Wyoming.

See the map above.
