    Now they should fire the CEO and anyone else involved in the stupid
    decision to destroy the company.

    Yet another example of go woke, go broke.
    When will the progressive freaks figure out that the majority of the
    population does not want this woke shit?

    'BREAKING: Cracker Barrel Caves to Public Pressure and Trump, Switches
    Back to Beloved ‘Old Timer’ Logo'

    'Cracker Barrel caved to public pressure and will switch its logo back
    to the beloved “Old Timer.”

    Last week Julie Felss Masino, the woke Cracker Barrel CEO sparked a
    major backlash after changing the company’s beloved logo.

    She claimed the public just loved the new Cracker Barrel logo and
    redesign of the restaurant. The new interior of Cracker Barrel looks
    cold and sterile – not like the original comfy and cozy vibe.

    “Honestly, the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive,” Masino said
    on Good Morning America last week.

    WATCH:



    The woke CEO was wrong.

    The new logo erased the old man leaning against a barrel – and wiped out
    more than $100 million of the company’s market value.

    Earlier Tuesday President Trump said Cracker Barrel should go back to
    the old logo.

    “Cracker Barrel should go back to the old logo, admit a mistake based on customer response (the ultimate Poll), and manage the company better
    than ever before. They got a Billion Dollars worth of free publicity if
    they play their cards right. Very tricky to do, but a great opportunity.
    Have a major News Conference today. Make Cracker Barrel a WINNER again. Remember, in just a short period of time I made the United States of
    America the “HOTTEST” Country anywhere in the World. One year ago, it
    was “DEAD.” Good luck!” Trump said on Truth Social on Tuesday morning.





    “We thank our guests for sharing your voices and love for Cracker
    Barrel. We said we would listen, and we have. Our new logo is going away
    and our “Old Timer” will remain,” Cracker Barrel said in a statement on X.

    “At Cracker Barrel, it’s always been – and always will be – about serving up delicious food, warm welcomes, and the kind of country
    hospitality that feels like family. As a proud American institution, our
    70,000 hardworking employees look forward to welcoming you to our table soon,” the company said'

    They are destroying their brand.
    Food at Cracker Barrel is mediocre at best.
    It's the atmosphere of an old time country store that entices people to eat there.
    They are making themselves into another generic diner and it will fail because the brand is everything in this case.

    It would be like the Catholic Church offering Pentagram charms along with Crucifix's.
    While they might attract some satanists, they will lose their loyal Christian following.

    Ask Budweiser Light about that one.
