Croutons are not stale bread, but they can be if you buy stale croutons!. Croutons are cut up pieces of bread that are coated with oil (probably something synthetic, or a mixed oil, for the packaged stuff - I make my own and use olive oil) along with herbs and spices, and then toasted to give them crunch and dry them out a bit!. They're sealed for many reasons - some you've been given, another is for shipping purposes, so you don't end up with a bag of bread crumbs since the bag is filled only part way and then filled the remainder of the way with air, just like they do chips and pretzels!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

it is so they do not get soggy!. When in the process of shipping, storing etc!.!.!. they have a lot of chances to come in contact with moisture!. The air tight seal keeps them from getting moisture and becoming uncrisp!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

but they have some moisture to keep of some flavor even if it is a hint of salt !.!.!.BTW
they are tiny baked bits of crackers!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

True!. But if humidity gets in the package, they will get chewy instead of crunchy!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
So they do not absorb moisture in the air and become soggy, and mould!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
to mike right above me, croutons are bits of bread, not crackersWww@FoodAQ@Com
So they stay crisp and crunchy!Www@FoodAQ@Com
