    Woke cancel culture .... if it aint broke don't fix it .
    I commented about the woke gang up on Cracker Barrel here

    Time to cancel the NY Slimes

    If you ever exit the Interstate to get a bite to eat ;you probably see a Cracker Barrel restaurant . You see people lined up on the rocking chairs outside as they wait their turn to sit down to an old country comfort meal . You know .... chicken and dumplings .... fried eggs and grits ..... meat loaf and mashed potatoes. I have often eaten at one all over the country (except there were very few on them in NY )

    Four years ago in the height of the cancel culture rage ;comments suggesting that the restaurants were racist were all over social media . You could see it in the name CRACKER . You could see it in the clientele .

    So in 2023 they hired Julie Felss Masino as the CEO . She is in the process of making fundamental changes to the company.

    She announced a revamp of the menu because well ..... since there has been no change in the menu for years( because there was no need to ) they were going to update it .

    Stock holders reacted by beginning a sell off.
    But the latest change is causing the stock to plummet.

    Their new logo (revamped after 47 years ) takes the old dude leaning on a barrel off of the design. They replaced it with a boring generic yellow sorta barrel shape .
    Yup the new logo gets rid of the barrel and the cracker

    Cracker Barrel shed almost $100 million in market value after its stock plunged Thursday following the release of a new logo. The new design eliminates a longstanding drawing of an overall-clad man leaning against a barrel, in favor of a cleaner logo featuring just the chain's name.

    Steak n Shake has it right

    "Heritage is what got Cracker Barrel this far, and now the CEO wants to just scrape it all away. At Steak 'n Shake, we take pride in our history, our families, and American values. All are welcome. We will never market ourselves away from our past in a cheap effort to gain the approval of trend seekers."
