Cracker Barrel statement:
Cracker Barrel’s mission is Pleasing People. We operate within the ideals of fairness, mutual respect and equal treatment of all people. These ideals are the core of our corporate culture.
We continue to offer Duck Commander products in our stores.
We removed selected products which we were concerned might offend some of our guests while we evaluate the situation.
We continually evaluate the products we offer and will continue to do so.

News Story: Cracker Barrel pulls some "Duck Dynasty" products

Dumb move for Cracker Barrel.
Imbeciles. I’m glad I don’t own any stock in that company.
Looks like they learned nothing from Chick-Fil-A.
That is going to hurt....them! Cracker Barrels are a big deal here in the south. DD is a big deal here...even bigger! For a family-oriented business, they either have NOT really read the real interview, or some gay activist threatened them. I don’t understand why CB would pull DD stuff, but maybe even they have a gay CEO now. Who knows?
With all the conservatives types I see at the Cracker Barrels I’ve been to it’s hard to believe they sided with the homos. Well it’s going to cost’em. Not eating there again until they change their tune. I think, for them, that was a BAD business decision.
Still doesn’t change the function of the anus. Your food proves it.
My family and I were all set to go there today after watching the Nutcracker! Guess that’s out.

Wow. Read the comments. They just screwed themselves BIG time by alienating their primary customer base. Hope they can survive on that 2 % of the population they are trying to appease.
wait wait wait.....equal respect and treatment of all peoples? So gay’s trashing religion , changing the passages that condemn homosexuality in the Bible, being vile and hateful towards anyone that doesn’t toe the line. They honestly think that these people treat Christians, or even atheists that believe homosexuality is wrong with respect?
That’s why this whole thing got started, because of intolerance....OF GAYS.
Cracker Barrel - Cheeseballs!
Put the PC BS where the sun doesn’t shine.
Check... forever off my list of businesses that I will commerce with. I refuse to willingly do business with satanic people... no respect and mutual understanding for CHRISTIANS OR FOR THE WORD OF GOD. I will never again go through their gate.
That’s a shame. I always liked their Mac’n’cheese and some of their other dishes. No more for me. And probably no more for a lot of other folks. Hope the geezer market is enough to carry them, because they’re not gonna get a whole lot of business from anyone else in The South.
.
Wait, it says that they continue to offer Duck Commander merchandise(which is Phil’s company). Perhaps this is just a badly written statement and they pulled the A&E merchandise?
Pretty ironic.
Sounds exactly like what Phil Robertson says and does, And sounds exactly the opposite of what the the Gay mafia says and does.
My wife and I ate there last night at a Georgia Cracker Barrel restaurant, we usually do on weekends. But now we are going to “evaluate” our situation and stay away, after all, a restaurant chain supposedly anchored by family values should stick to those values if they want to keep the same customers that brought them to this point.
