How to keep the rest
To keep the remaining crackers fresh and crisp, ensure the package is sealed tightly after opening. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid leaving the bag open for extended periods, as this can cause them to lose their crunchiness. Proper storage will maintain their quality for future enjoyment.
