I think I've eaten at a cracker barrel twice, both times were on a roadtrip and it was the most established place off an interstate exit, so purely convenience. I haven't the first clue what they even offer, I just assume it's all chicken fried and covered with gravy.
That there are people out there absolutely losing their mind over the logo change is one of the most confusing things I've ever seen. Who. Fucking. Cares? Goddamn, the group that likes to call everyone else a snowflake, sure is the most infantile people on earth.
That said, I'll avoid cracker barrel from here on. I really don't want to be near the sort of people who frequent that establishment. Kudos to them for so proudly self-identifying...
All I know about Cracker Barrel is the company's history of racism, like this from 2004:
If I'd given it any thought, I might have assumed the company's shittiness was in the past, but this right-wing uproar over re-designed branding, with the frickin' President of the United States demanding they switch back to the old logo, and the company's quick acquiescence, convinces me Cracker Barrel is a restaurant for fascists.
