My love for Barnum's Animal Crackers has rekindled: they're my son's favorite snack, and I've been known to taste-test them for him from time to time.

TVFactFan 09-27-2012, 06:18 PM My mom said the box was 5 cent when she was a little girl and you had more cookies
Now in 2012, the box is $2.50 and you get less cookies:confused: :confused:

you need to remind them that they is a GOOD SOURCE OF CALCIUM.
- or just lie and say they are for your nephew so he stops chewing on your stuff.

Have you tried the Stouffers brand? Dollar Tree has them for $1 a bag and it's 11 ounces. They have them in plain and with icing.

I don't buy snacks out of the dollar store, i know that it may sound weird but I prefer not to:lol: :lol:

Why not? they're just as good as the ones you get at the grocery store. I bought a bag of them yesterday and they don't expire until April, 2013. It doesn't make sense that you would pay $2.50 for one box when you can get the equivalent of 5 boxes for only a buck. If they were expired then I could see your point but Dollar Tree doesn't sell expired food.
Coffeecup 10-01-2012, 04:03 PM [QUOTE=Zoneboy]Have you tried the Stouffers brand?
I buy Stouffers and I pay about $1.50 for a bag. I haven't seen the Barnum boxes in ages. Maybe they are squirreled away and I just pass by.

The Barnum Boxes are in Walmart and target. Actually they have the bigger bag of Barnum Cookies
Janice 10-01-2012, 05:49 PM I love animal crackers. I buy them at the grocery store fairly often. What a racket they have going, a tiny box of cookies for $2.50. They should sell them in the regular size box and charge $3.79 or something, although it is fun eating the cookies out of the box.

I know that why it's better for me to just buy the big Barnum bag at Walmart or Target
We get ours in that "SnakSaks" bag, Sol, but I miss the box. It seems the boxes protect the cookies a lot better (lots of broken ones in the bag, especially as you get toward the bottom).

You are right, it's something about the box that is better

Cool, that's news to me. How much do they charge for them. OT: Signed you up for Ebony magazine today. :)

Can you sign me up for some Barnum Cookies so I can get those in the mail-lol
I can't remember I use to get them when I was out with my family. I think somewhere in between $2.40 and $4.00
Family Ties Forever! 10-03-2012, 11:59 PM I didn't know Stouffers made animal crackers. I know they make tv dinners.
I like animal crackers. I remember how they would come in a box.
OH Nuts! 10-04-2012, 08:02 AM I;m sick of cashiers giving me funny looks because I;m 6'5 buying animal cookies:lol: :lol:
That is so weird of them Sol. Folks of all ages like animal cookies. (I always call them animal crackers - don't know why - cause they're sweet like a cookie)
I suppose one of the nice things about NYC is people tend to be non-plussed, someone could be walking down the street with magenta hair and 23 nose rings and nobody bats an eye.
So if you get a funny look just give one back. It's none of those d*mn cashier's business.

I'm thinking it was because the animal crackers were the only thing I was buying. So it stood out more

Sol, we bought generic (store brand) animal crackers recently. It just wasn't the same! We won't be making that mistake again. ;)
