Q. How can you tell that the new Cracker Barrel logo is a classic woke catastrophe?
A. When even the Morning Joe crew mocks it.
You might think that the show would applaud the redesign. After all, it eliminates the image of an old, white, Southern maleāand you know what, in liberal minds, those guys stand for!
But no! On today's show, Jonathan Lemire led off the discussion by sardonically saying, "Let's be clear. It's now Cracker Barrel with no sign of a barrel." That got the panel, Eugene Robinson in particular, laughing [see screencap.]
Katty Kay tried at first to be supportive, saying, "Looks fine to me," but then honesty got the better of her, and she had to admit:
"I think the barrel looks kind of nice, too. The new logo looks kind of boring, actually. I'm going to be honest: looks kind of boring."

Which will last longer: the new logo, or the CEO who implemented it?
The new “Girl Boss” must think there is virtue in suicide.
LOL: Hunter’s got a new career!
I'm surprised they didn't add, "And also no sign of a Cracker!"
No sign of a Cracker, either. I'm calling on all Crackers to boycott the restaurant until the boss girl gets fired.
That is probably the part that Eugene was laughing about.
Investment rule of thumb: If your portfolio has a stock and the company for whatever reason hires a woman as CEO, sell it immedeatly.Also if the company hires a male CEO and it can be demonstated that he is a habitual Democrat donor, also prudent to sell.
The old logo featured a white dude. I’m convinced that was a major reason for the change.
Yet another asshat who can't read the room.
One of the better analyses I heard said that CB sells nostalgia. Maybe for an ideal time that never was but nostalgia none the less. Brilliant broad is removing all that...no barrel, no old man, lighter, updated decor with crap no country home would have like bowling pins and tennis rackets.
She is getting rid of CB.
I don’t think it will fly. I understand she is from Starbucks and Taco Bell where she tried this and it worked: but they weren’t selling nostalgia...
My take.. she is SPINNING how it's SUPPOSED to be... But, it is NOT that way at all.
It's safe to say she's LYING while HOPING her SILLY A$$ marketing idea will take hold and SUCCEED... IT WILL NOT! Especially in the Southern U.S., which is Cracker Barrel's backyard.
A rainbow “Barrel of Trannies” logo should be the new, woke company brand.
No sign of a “cracker” either... that’s what a racist would say..
Why is it that a poor white man can be called a “cracker”, “honky”, “blue eyed devil” when a perjorative term for other ethnicities (still human race) is not allowed?
Answer: when the word is passed around over the omnipresent false media that it OK to do so.
To paraphrase Shakespeare ..”first, destroy the medias power over the worlds narrative”
I have the theory that the Cracker Barrel guy (official name “Uncle Herschel”) is in a remote location for people like him, playing Pinochle with Aunt Jemima, Uncle Ben, and Mia, the Land o’ Lakes Butter Maiden. Herschel prefers Checkers, but four people, and only one board.
LOL: Good one! :-)
I was thinking along the same line, but would Dylan Mulvaney and the Sambo mascot be eligible to join as alternates for the card game?
“Dylan Mulvaney’s Bud Light: the Official Beer of Cracker Barrel!”
:-)
I've heard of Cracker Barrel, but didn't realize we had one in my my modest size midwest metro area. I've lived here for over 35 years and don't recall ever seeing an advertisement or knowing of their whereabouts. After they made the news with the logo change, I looked them up. Their solo store in the area is at an interstate exit/entrance ramp. I suspect a good chunk of their business is people wanting to sit down for a meal instead of going to a fast food joint. I wouldn't drive across town to get their $15 burger meal when I can drive a few blocks and pay the same..
