When does Graham Cookies expire?

How do you tell if Graham Cookies is bad?
You can tell if graham cookies have gone bad by checking their texture and smell. If they've become soft, instead of their usual crisp texture, or if they have an off smell, they are probably past their best. Also, if there’s any visible mold or discoloration, it's time to throw them out. Taste is also a giveaway - if the taste isn't right or is stale, it's time to discard your cookies.
Tips for storing Graham Cookies to extend shelf life
• Always store graham cookies in a cool, dry place - your cupboard or pantry is perfect.
• Once the package is opened, make sure you seal it properly. You can also transfer them to an airtight container to keep them fresh for longer.
• If you want to freeze them, put the cookies in a freezer-friendly food storage bag or container. Make sure to remove as much air as possible before sealing.
• When ready to use your frozen graham cookies, let them thaw in the fridge overnight before using.
