HEY MATE...!
HERE IS UR ANSWER...!
Initially the cracker was at rest. The initial momentum of the system is zero. When the cracker bursts, it splits into splinters. According to conservation of linear momentum, the final momentum of the system has to be zero. So, the splinters fly in off symmetrically in all direction such that the overall momentum is zero.
HOPE IT HELPS...!
