The CEO who modernized the JC Penney brand would like to weigh on on how good this idea is, fortunately he has a lot of time on his hands since shareholders demanded he be fired a couple years later.

they are trying to move the demographic. I like it the way it is.

Well, they had to eliminate the old white guy with the rural vibe. /sarc But that looks like a regular chair, not a rocking chair.

The woman CEO got in trouble because she criticized the existing customers. She is trying to save herself by changing the branding. She doesn’t know the restaurant business but she has a vagina.

They could lose the old guy next to the cracker barrel - but the company is called 'CRACKER BARREL!'

Whoever does the purchasing for their gift shops does an excellent job. Special Kudos to that part of the company.

Looks like they don't want to be known as an old, country store.

Sorry, but if your name is "Cracker Barrel" you are an old, country store.

Probably a lot cheaper to print. But they’re still too far away, and the food’s not that great.

Quaker Oats had a commercial many many decades ago that said “when you’ve got a good thing, don’t mess around with it”. Possibly that concept is too basic for that young lady.

Nah. It is just another soulless corporate logo. Going out to eat, even for a quick burger and fries use to be fun. Now it is just mindless fueling.

They might as well just dump some Purina bachelor chow in a feed bag and slap you on the rump to move you along.

Nothing is fun any more.

Ms Vapid nothing, trying to bring the ‘future’ to Cracker Barrel is sooooooo fitting of the nothingness oozing out of these ill-educated and totally not creative losers. Take a picture of a dirty toilet where someone has taken a bodacious Obama in it. That’s poor Cracker Barrel’s future if it continues to be run by a CEO with the executive ability of the Obama Crime family. Hopefully, someone down south will resurrect the “tar and feather” tradition and introduce that ignorant s**t CEO to it. I’ll never go to our local one again (always quite crowded) if they renew.

“Old Country Store” is the whole brand and Nostalgic hook that catches folks in the first place. Dumb as hell to “modernize” an “Old Country store”... Nostalgia is Nostalgia, you do not modernize Nostalgia. It is the opposite of what the definition of Nostalgia even is...

nostalgia:

1: a wistful or excessively sentimental yearning for return to or of some past period or irrecoverable condition
also : something that evokes nostalgia

2: the state of being homesick : homesickness

Woke just broke the old country store... She obviously did not get her moneys worth of education. Fire her for even trying this.

I’ve been boycotting them for years for some reason I have forgotten.

Cracker Barrel is like Target or Anheuser Busch to the extent that they thought they could go “woke” and not suffer the economic consequences of informal customer boycotts. In the case of Cracker Barrel, I have heard the quality of food and service has declined from 15-20 years ago. In the case of Target, the department store chain compounded its woes by backpedaling on the LGBTQ initiative due to conservative backlash and consequently suffering from a leftist counter-boycott.
