just wondering

Maybe it was just sort of a happy medium. "It's a cookie and a biscut... nyeh. Cracker is more appealing than 'animal cookie' or 'animal biscut'." Or maybe they didn't want to be favoring either word so they just picked a new one.
Just throwing out ideas here.

In many cultures the words, Cookie, biscuit & Cracker mean the same thing.
In the USA Cookie is a sweet, Biscuit is a Bread, Cracker is a crunchy savory bit.

I suppose they had to come up with something that made sense to them and sounded good to the public. I'm sure they had some high priced consultants analyzing all the possibilities and a biscuit just wouldn't work.
And it is truely more like a cookie, but it didn't fit their criteria, and besides it was not nearly as cute as animal cracker.

They must have been more crackerlike in the past.
Ever hear that song from the 30's...
"Animal Crackers In My Soup"?
Don't think they referring to cookies.
