animal crackers

Edible zoo inhabitants

Animal crackers are small, sweet, lightly flavored crackers shaped like various animals—lions, elephants, bears, and the like.

Marketed primarily to children, they're often sold in distinctive boxes designed to look like circus cages.

Despite the name, they're closer to cookies than savory crackers: The kids shared a box of animal crackers on the car ride.
