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).
All companies expressing any political meta is pandering.
Any adherence to a political meta isn’t a testament of their values, it is a testament of their customers’ values.
Companies want the money of their customers’ and they will say or do anything they think will keep making them money.
If you think any company supports DEI or LGBTQ issues genuinely, I have a bridge to sell you.
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.
More like a place near highway exits where you can get sit down service. That is really what their market is.
Just watch me as I continue to never go to a cracker barrel ever in my life because of how fucking irrelevant they are. I don’t even know where the nearest one to me would be.
Drive down a highway in any area with a decent population and it will be right off the interstate.
Lol not where I am, I just checked, it would be about a 6 hour drive into the next state. Definitely gonna rent me a car to go to the dewoked cracker barrel in fucking Idaho lol
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.

Aaaaand there it is.
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!
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 😆
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.
You can’t have Cracker Barrel without crackers.
Will also quietly remove Cracker Barrel from my restaurant possibilities. Okay, maybe not so quietly.
Why was it there to begin with?
They have pretty good breakfast, but would only occasionally eat there.
I can’t abide a breakfast that doesn’t have butter or maple syrup. And they have neither.
Those strawberry cheesecake pancakes are so good. I don’t think I’ve tasted anything better.
They’ve got decent catfish, potatoes, biscuits with apple butter.
Haven’t been in a couple years maybe, but it was good in a pinch & with a variety of food that you can get most people in a group to agree on.
Last time I was there they didn’t even have butter. Some margarine crap. And no maple syrup either. Just some crappy high fructose flavored watery stuff.
Just awful. I am surprised you found anything edible.
Where’s RFK Jr when you need him /S
When you’re traveling and you just need to hop off 95 for some food, It’s better and cleaner than Wendy’s, McDonald’s and Burger King.
Face it, the semi-fast food and fast food landscape isn’t the treat it once was.
Welp, not goin to cracker barrel ever again.
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.

Hey guys, people didn’t like the logo change. Maybe we try to get MAGA people in here?
Pretty sure the MAGA crowd was always their biggest user base. This smells more like ‘maybe if we double down, they’ll forget about the logo and come in more’.
I still find it hilarious that people think the logo change was “woke”.
What do words even mean any more?
In reality: woke = having social empathy.
In their world: woke = whatever I don’t like.Oh that’s easy, woke is when uninspiring logo design
Smells more like “lets manufacture some kind of fake outrage to stir up conversation and get our brand name back out there” and of course the country’s stupidest segment eats it up.
Pussies.
