We made more money having a Fish fry with only a 1 night event than we did selling Popcorn.. and we used the money right in our troop for camping fees etc..

Yes, that's my point exactly! I would buy if I thought the majority of the money went directly to the troop selling, but like so many other "charities" admin gets most....rest get a pittance! I would loveto see a financial report on this project.......how much does the baking company get from this? Wonder if this falls under "freedom of information" act.
