People often eat these cookies straight from the package as a quick and satisfying snack. They can be twisted apart to eat the creme first, or eaten whole.

How it differs from similar foods

How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any remaining cookies in their original packaging or an airtight container at room temperature. Avoid exposing them to excessive heat or moisture, which can cause them to become stale or lose their crispness. Properly sealed, they will remain enjoyable for a reasonable period.
