Oh thank god! Now you bawling snowflakes can go back to not eating their barely edible chicken & dumplings.

Just a dumb response…

A company can do whatever it wants to do, everyone will probably agree. Now, a patron can espouse dislike as well. What Cracker Barrel did was fall victim to people like you and push this modern woke agenda. People reacted, stock fell, they caved. Good for Cracker Barrel for listening, as their tweet said.

Now, they should look at the Board and remove anyone that pushed the agenda, as well as, their executives that executed on the agenda. If not, I guess we will see if they get Bud Lighted…

What was "woke" about the CB logo change again?
nothing. It was the original logo.

Ho-Hum...

This articles clearly says that even Trump advisors agree tariffs are a tax on consumers.

It hides behind tariffs only causing a "one-time price adjustment" and not steady-state inflation (which would only potentially be true if tariffs were rolled out all at one time in a consistent manner, and this process has obviously been anything but that) but whether you surf or ski, what consumers feel is the prices have or will go up due to tariffs.

I'm not sure consumers much care whether prices go up in a single larger increment or whether they drift up over time.

So what exactly is your point?

Where is the benefit to American consumers? Prices will go up. What about their income? Will tariffs help increase that? Why should consumers want tariffs in place?

thank you for sharing. Unsurprised what is widely reported is wrong apparently (this is not meant that I don't believe your source. I do, but it's disappointing that news sources that are trustworthy reported the opposite).

The original logo was just the name, no old dude, so yeah, close enough for non-lunatics.

Hey Republicans!
Trump was *legally* spied on because his entire admin were pen pals with Russian oligarchs. That's the CIA's job. He *lost* the 2020 election and is a whiney loser. And everything else is exactly what has happened to every other crook in American history. Maybe he's just a crook?

And maybe you're just too stupid to realize it? Or maybe you just don't care because only a Mussolini wanna-be will be able to dismantle the America that actual patriots died for and get you what you want.

You're shocked that the news media lies to you? LMAO, how many years of lies does it take for you to wake up. I've been encouraged the last few months as I've witnessed a smattering of awareness creeping in. You can do it, I believe in ya, even when others don't. ;-)

Yeah, we should definitely ditch the often slanted mainstream media and replace it with Were's firehose of bullsh** propaganda!

This "controversy" was and continues to be so dumb and contrived.

Cracker Barrel's original logo in 1969 and for its first 8 or 9 years was only words (no Old Timer). This new logo was a callback to the old, words-only logo.

The Old Timer was added in 1977 and has remained since.

So no, the new logo was not a spitting image of the old logo.

Yes, the new logo was a reversion to the old, words-only logo approach, with no Old Timer.

Can anyone on here explain what's woke about Cracker Barrel's switch to the new logo?

I think the logo change has been slightly blown out of proportion. In fact, I don't think I've been commenting specifically about the logo; rather about the ideology of leadership at Cracker Barrel.

Go do your research on that and perhaps you will be enlightened... That said, you will probably look at left wing rags that will not talk about the company's rush to woke ideology.

Here you go Hokie, right from the man that buys all products for our company...

While our competitors are raising prices due to tariff increases and the expiration of de minimis import exemptions, we're doing the opposite.

Instead of passing raising costs on to the customer, we're lowering our prices delivering even greater value when customers expect to pay more elsewhere.


Now, I didn't post the balance of the email showing the changes as it includes private information; however, I thought this section was important for you to see.. As you can see, not all companies are held captive to country's that are enemy's to the US.

I never gave a **** about the logo but I love how the arbiters of truth have gone from "they just used the original logo" to "they're just using a logo similar to the one they had before". Lol! The only similarities between the two are they both have words on them. My word, you mother****ers can never admit when you're wrong. lol


The best thing about the "controversy" is the backpedaling of the liberals. And that you're still mad that CB customers did not like the change. Hilarious.

Exactly.

MAGA is mad the old country fella isn't on the logo anymore because that's woke, somehow.

That's the whole point.

Except...the old country fella wasn't on the original logo either.

Your people have set quite the precedent with the Redskins, Indians, uncle Ben's, Aunt Jemima, etc. so I completely understand people with a vested interest not liking the new logo. I get the incessant willful ignorance by the Dems to not understand the Cracker Barrel patrons opinions as the goal is always to own the right, but most importantly to own MAGA!!!!!

But MAGA won again. Good guys FTW.

Why was it important to the white woman CEO to remove the old white man from the logo is the better question.

No, every company very clearly cannot do that.

The companies that can and will are fortunate and are operating on higher margins than agriculture, basic manufacturing, commoditized retail, and many other lower-margin industries. Luxury goods, specialized tech, others have more cushion.

My electrician that runs two three man crews in a competitive labor landscape isn't eating copper price increases. He's just not. He can't. He doesn't have the size or the margin. There are thousands of other companies like him that can't or won't.

This argument about "good companies will eat costs and bad companies won't" is untethered from economic and practical realities.
