Why is it feminine?
Galleta is feminine because it ends in "-eta", a feminine diminutive suffix in Spanish. Words ending in "-eta" are typically feminine (e.g., "meseta", "maleta", "caseta"). The word likely derives from Old Spanish "galleta" or possibly from Occitan "galet" (a type of biscuit), and the feminine gender was preserved through this linguistic evolution.
