Not many in the “Pajama Boy” crowd eat at CB. Who ever made that decision should probably be canned for not understanding the customers. It’s Christmas, so I don’t really hope anyone gets canned, but I wouldn’t be surprised if that happened.

Dear Cracker Barrel Customer:

When we made the decision to remove and evaluate certain Duck Dynasty items, we
offended many of our loyal customers. Our intent was to avoid offending, but
that’s just what we’ve done.

You told us we made a mistake. And, you weren’t shy about it. You wrote, you
called and you took to social media to express your thoughts and feelings.
You flat out told us we were wrong.

We listened.

Today, we are putting all our Duck Dynasty products back in our stores.

And, we apologize for offending you.

We respect all individuals right to express their beliefs. We certainly did not
mean to have anyone think different.

We sincerely hope you will continue to be part of our Cracker Barrel family.

Remember: $ spent on “Duck Dynasty” products goes to A&E. $ spent of “Duck Commander” products goes to the Robertsons.

HAHA. I am one of the many who sent them a little note. This thing that glaad does is preposterous and we need to fight back hard.

The fact that glaad was able to get such an immediate concession from A&E tells us even more clearly that this was all intentionally done. As a vehicle to promote glaad, and stifle Christians at CHRISTMAS TIME. Why do you think A&E used the wording that they are “champions” of glaad?

This is strange - just pulled up an ABCNews article (written today) that Cracker Barrel is pulling DD stuff off their shelves...

ABC - a Day late - a Dollar short - and Defective reporting

Do you remember Bonanza and Ponderosa restaurants?

The Duck Commander brand will most likely move into the restaurant chain business.

Boudin...yum!
