Simple solution to Crackers problem is to fire Julies’ a$$ and revert back to the traditional logo. Julie gets wokie every 28 days, she can’t help it.

Look at the 5 year trend.

Definitely a downhill trend. I don't necessarily see a drop that correlates to this specific logo change per se. I interpret the five year more to the decline of the experience there as a whole. It definitely tracks with my personal experience. Especially since post COVID. They always seem understaffed, table service has declined, carryout has been awful, the place is dirty, etc. Not to mention that they used to have an awesome Chef's salad that has declined to "meh".

The phrase “dead cat bounce” is relevant here.

Unless their logo is distasteful, the logo should have nothing to do with the service, food, and cleanliness of the restaurants. If you like their facilities, then changing the logo makes absolutely no difference in their product.

This is just another misdirection by the politicians to deter their actions so they can get away with them by keeping you occupied with stupidity. And the media is “whoring” themselves out for the effort.

This is not a new restaurant business and most likely the servers, cooks, or anyone attached to the restaurant chain are still there doing the same job they were doing before the idiocy started. And people who are screaming about this should should take a real hard look at what they are doing and be embarrassed.

The idea was to celebrate the diversity of all our guests with a logo that represented our continued passion for pleasing people of all races, colors, and genders,” the company said on its website.

Go WOKE - Go BROKE. They took Trump's advice and cleaned up their act. The original logo stays the same. If they're really smart they'll fire the bimbo who came up with this crap.

CB 5 year return is -52%.

They have their old logo back, but they also still have the fundamental problem they were trying to solve with a makeover: eroding customer base.

Fox News

Cracker Barrel said Tuesday that after listening to its customers, it will scrap its new logo and keep the “Old Timer” in place.

“We thank our guests for sharing your voices and love for Cracker Barrel,” the restaurant chain said in a statement to FOX Business. “We said we would listen, and we have. Our new logo is going away and our ‘Old Timer’ will remain. At Cracker Barrel, it’s always been – and always will be – about serving up delicious food, warm welcomes, and the kind of country hospitality that feels like family.”

“As a proud American institution, our 70,000 hardworking employees look forward to welcoming you to our table soon,” the restaurant chain added.

Cracker Barrel found itself at odds with its fans after removing “Uncle Herschel” from its logo. The company unveiled its revamped text-only design, sparking backlash and sinking its stock price.

The original 1969 logo was also text-only, but the 1977 addition of the now-iconic imagery became a staple of its branding.
