You can’t have Cracker Barrel without crackers.
This has to be on the top 10 dumbest moral panics in history
conservative panics to be exact. just like with the tan suit panic, the djon mustard one, gay and satanic panic, plus aids panic.
Not even close I will bet!
Welp, not goin to cracker barrel ever again.
Aaaaand there it is.
I demand political purity from my breakfast place.
They could simply have done nothing and no one would be asking them for anything, but now they decided to kneel to bigots.
Someone tell Dolly.
I loathe Cracker Barrel.
Why? I’m a Southerner that knows Southern food, knows what a good, family resturant is, or in some town’s cases, was, and I blame them for the systematic deletion of small family restaurants across the South.
Make the food good enough and intice people with fake antiques and candy and you too can run everyone out of business with tacky crap in place of anything anyone would consider soul.
Ugh, fuck them. So tacky, fake and greedy. I feel wrong being in one, like oil and water.
I grew up in a city where anybody who is darker than a pencil avoided the hell out of Cracker Barrel. Not just because of the racist clientele, but also because the food sucked.
Pretty bold to be claiming people with melanin in their skin have taste buds…

hours.I’ve always associated cracker barrel with “angry old white people who think black pepper is spicy” and their meaner variant, the post-church crowd. so… not particularly surprised?
Yeah, I’m more surprised they had any sort of DEI language to begin with (of course it was clearly just pandering, so).
More like a place near highway exits where you can get sit down service. That is really what their market is.
Lol, I went to some chain and got the chicken Alfredo, the guy warns me it’s a bit spicy. I tell him no worries, bring it on. The thing has like 6 flakes of red pepper on it. I figured he had to warn me bc some Karen complained.
Look around a lot of businesses are grasping at straws. They are offering specials and discounts galore, unless it is beef, produce, electronics or foreign imports. The logo change was a cry of desperation. Unfortunately they will lose business no matter what now.
The logo change was just an innocuous act of corporate blandness to simplify it. Then people freaked out because somehow a guy leaning on a barrel deeply touched them.
The guy is called the cracker.
a guy leaning on a barrel deeply touched them.
Must have been their turn in the barrel.
He must be a Republican Senator with all that touching.
He was touching a barrel, not a child.
…wait, maybe the barrel was very young and asking for it? Damn them young sexy curvy barrels!!
LOL, that corporate performative stuff never meant much as far as being “allies” to anyone.
No, but it sure is telling recinding those policies at this time.
Dying restaurant flails wildly to try and recapture relevancy oozing away from it like blood from a stuck, bloated corpse.
Yeah, I don’t really think they were doing very well even before the poutrage over the logo.
“Poutrage”. Lol, I’ve gotta remember that one
I read it as poot-raj at first, thinking it was some borrowed French word I was unfamiliar with 😆
Always appease the fascists and far-right nutjobs, then they will totally leave you alone once in power…
Oh, wait. They actually won’t…
