Common questions

How long does graham cracker/animal cracker last in the pantry?

6–9 months from the date of purchase.

How can I tell if graham cracker/animal cracker has gone bad?

Throw it out if it smells off, feels slimy or sticky, shows mold, or has changed color. Storage times assume it was handled safely and kept cold the whole time.
