My last 2 meals at CB were bland and barely warm. The Chicken fried steak was like 3 day old leftovers. I had enough of them long before this woke crap was exposed.

They didn’t even think about the customer but some insane idea about something or other

Is Bud Lite on the new Cracker Barrel menu?

Everytime I see “stock is tanking”, I check.

It’s not doing poorly. What are they talking about?

The Left never retreats.....

Indeed. They take over an organization and then put it's head on a pike to parade it around unapologetically as a trophy. The Boy Scouts really hurt when they did this.

Typical woke horse hockey.

Customer: “Your food quality has really gone downhill in this homey place we used to love.”

Woke Idiot Management: “Hey, let’s paint the place white and change our signage. That’ll bring them back!”

Look at the last 3-5 years, it's tanking. They needed to do something, and not just the logo - perhaps better food, prices, service....

I was just looking at their West Palm (nearest location) menu. WTH? Adopt Applebee’s menu and add in Bud Light’s marketing, and you are not on a good path.

There isn’t even a hot roast beef, chicken, or turkey open face sandwich.

Hire somebody from the south or Texas for CEO maybe someone from the blue collar comedy tour like Ron White, Larry the cable guy would be good too Foxworthy probably has the brains to do it. They probably knows nothing about restaurants but neither does their current CEO but I bet the the place would be fun

How about this as a letter from Cracker Barrel dear Cracker Barrel customers we have heard you loud and clear therefore we will not be remodeling the new Cracker Barrel to the new logo or the decor in the restaurant. We will continue to keep it as is we appreciate your business. Thank you, Cracker Barrel

“ Instead they are becoming a case study in how to destroy a longstanding and recognizable business brand overnight.”

Check CB executive trades over the last month. I’m willing to bet several shorted the stock.

How about Uncle Herschel’s breakfast? Would he have wanted the menu item named after him removed?

What a complete FAIL of a statement.

Like one of those “Oh, I’m sorry you caught me” apologies the left always offers.

Has the incompetent blonde been fired, yet?

Asking for Uncle Hershel.

I think there will be more contrition but not a firing of the CEO. Stocks been more or less stable over the last several days, down 15% in the last month, but just bobbing around in that range

Cracker Barrel Confederate Statued The OLD WHITE GUY OFF Their Sign

Literally removed the “Cracker” so to speak.
