I knew someone who worked there...
She called it the Crack Bar.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

breakfast food is good, the rest is hit or miss,

Did that a long time ago. Went to Cracker Barrel once back in the 90’s and the service and food were lousy and never went back.

Somehow I feel worrying about a restaurant chain's decor change should be the least of our concerns...

The fact that this is even gaining national news attention at all makes me feel that someone is intentionally trying to take our attention away from something else...

Everything I was thinking is wrong, i deleted my ignorant postin my new opinion . The corporate board and ceo are woke and are denying the heritage of all Americans. I just didn’t think it through deeply enough. All of the artifacts were a part of every previous generation. Of course, it’s their decision. After all, it’s just a restaurant. I see now that Cracker Barrel is attempting to erase anything that doesn’t presently recognize D E I. Our history and the accompanying artifacts were not equal. Yes, they were diverse but not in the way the woke culture is coloring the world. Inclusion? What does that even mean . I loved the artifacts in the walls. I love history. I relish seeing the some of the old candies, beverages and toys from my childhood . Oh well. It’s their business .
Most restaurants I frequent are little greasy spoons with little decor. Now that’s nostalgic.

Their breakfast used to be good though a bit pricey. Since the Wu Flu it's taken a nosedive. Not worth the price any longer.

Nah, you’re thinking unnecessarily too deep. There’s no “something else” there. It’s just what we see. Woke shit and DIE push that caught conservatives’ attention. It’s the same with so many others (Gillette, Yeti, Benchmade, Bud Light, Levi’s, etc.) in recent years that made national news.

I recall when Red Lobster here in Cedar Rapids had the great idea that seemingly all LG waiters was a great idea some years back. Then Aids hit and amazingly a lot of local folks preferred to not have those thumbs on their plates. Not that one couldn't get some sort of disease from a straight person but folks were not sure about what was going on medically at that time. Pretty much killed their business. Can't figure out why that would have been... Anyway there was a very serious fire in the restaurant which closed it for about two years which terminated recall rights of all employees. How convenient was that?

FWIW, there were signs in the local Barrels at the entrance talking about how they welcomed all people of color,

stemmed from a lawsuit in the early 2000's,


running joke in this area was they were going to be Blacker Barrel,
