How it differs from similar foods

How to keep the rest
To maintain their crispness, store any unopened boxes in a cool, dry pantry. Once a box has been opened, transfer any remaining crackers to an airtight container or resealable bag. This helps prevent them from becoming stale and losing their satisfying crunch.
