Animal crackers are associated with my childhood. Two of my sisters who were working in the city always brought us tins of these biscuits and we could eat any number we wanted
We siblings would even play a game with them. We would pick a handful and the one who had the most pairs would be the winner and others would have to part with a biscuit each.
Then we would mention the name of any one animal and if that animal was found in the lot that sibling would win the game and if more than two siblings had them then the winner would be chosen by playing the eenie meenie miney mo game
We played this game hiding from mother as she never encouraged us to play with food.

I used to love animal crackers when they came in the original box and had the string I could carry along with me. I have not had them in ages. You can get them online.
Just to get back memories I will look for them online Thanks.
We didn’t have these crackers in my childhood. My grandchildren love these crackers.
Nowadays it is difficult to find them here.
