Animal crackers are delectable members of the early childhood “munchie” family. Variation is evident among this specific group of baked goods. They can be found as lions, giraffes, bears and so many other forms that listing them all would be tedious. Because vegetarians refrain from consuming animal products, it can be assumed that they care for other creatures. Therefore, eating crackers in the form of a monkey, or any other creature, may be viewed as hypocritical. However, if you must consume them, be sure to do so humanely. In other words, try not to violently tear off limbs or crush them unnecessarily. Be kind, gentle and caring. After all, they are “animals.”
