I had to find out if that was real, and much to my chagrin it is:

The ‘death’ of DEI and Woke is BS.

It is the Babylon bBee. I was fooled initially because the source was X/twitter.

He's a white guy, so he or his ancestors might have owned slaves, therefore the old logo was rayciss.

"At publishing time, leftist protestors had gathered to demand a plaque be added to the exhibit telling the story of how the white guy from the Cracker Barrel logo was probably a slave owner."

In the old days, slave owners kept a large wooden cask, and if a slave didn’t follow the tyrannical orders of their slavemaster, they were placed in the barrel. The slaves called it “The Cracker Barrel.

So, when the franchise began, the founder, whose great great grandparents were slave owners thought it was a good idea to name their chain “Cracker Barrel”. They never thought anyone would catch on or remember it, and they thought it was an inside joke.

Only kidding. I made all that up. But if I didn’t, someone else at DU surely would have.

Heck, that is probably going to show up in ChatGPT:

QUESTION: Where did the brand name “Cracker Barrel” come from?

CHATGPT: Some sources say that the great, great grandparents of the founder were slave-owners, and...

The chick formerly of Taco Bell will lead the destruction of this brand, then take her golden parachute and drift into another brand to screw up.

Let's be honest though, Cracker Barrel is having trouble because its quality of food has declined dramatically. These days it's small portions of clearly premade garbage being pulled from a can or a freezer. Maybe it always has been and they were just better at hiding it in the past.

They have had trouble with staffing ever since COVID. That made them cut corners on the food. Take away the old fashioned charm of the stores and you got nothing left.

I still eat there around once every 2-3 months, but if they change the decor at my store, I will never go back.
