We got our cracker back. Is it Go Woke, Go Broke?

[Buford_T_Justice]

I'm not giving Trump credit for their political change of heart, but he did basically tell Cracker Barrel that abandoning their loyal customers was an idiotic thing to do.
Didn't Anheuser-Busch try this? " Hey, let's dump our loyal farmers, ranchers, motocross fans, NASCAR fans, softball fans, hunters, campers, fishermen, and beer-bong-toting Frat boys, and replace that huge money-packin' fan base with highly sophisticated people who hate beer!"
What could go wrong?

They better change the furniture too and yes go woke go broke is exactly how it works.

I've never been on the inside of one but I heard what you're talking about.

The interiors are beautiful and one of the most important parts of cracker barrel. They use dark wood paneling and have all kinds of country decorations. They have little table games you can play too and the foods not bad either. One of the coolest things that makes a cracker barrel a cracker barrel as well is you enter the restaurant through a small general store with all kinds of old-fashioned candy and things like slinkies and other old toys. Basically, you feel like you've stepped into a time that's long gone, and this is a tiny pocket of it that's still alive. If they go corporate with the furniture and logo, they kill the entire premise of cracker barrel, and it will become just another normal restaurant. The old country feel and country food was the most important part! Basically imagine dairy queen removed all ice cream from the menu and just kept their burgers and other meals? That's basically what they're doing. This is why people hate DEI with a passion it destroys everything it touches.

How can you take such a good thing and fuck it up?
It was probably somebody fresh out of college who read some crap in books about making businesses woke.

[Cormac995]

Cracker barrel is so popular they are everywhere from down south in Florida to even as far west as Montana! If it ain't broke don't fix it!"

[Buford_T_Justice]

Exactly

[noohair]

Make the food better. If you fix it, they will come...

Well they weren't really going woke with the change, as far as it appears its removal had nothing to do with politics, the man leaning on the barrel was never meant to be a black guy or anything. It was because it is harder to mass produce signs with the logo.

[Buford_T_Justice]

Nice guess

[Jackblue]

Do you know something I don't?

[Buford_T_Justice]

Yes, I read the story.

[Tamera952]

Removing the guy and the rocking chair, and the barrel is ‘woke’ ? …really? Hopefully it’ll piss people off enough to stop going there, and the whole thing will disappear.

Moron

[Buford_T_Justice]

What does this have to do with my question?

[Buford_T_Justice]
