All part of the plan.

This is a deliberate plan to destroy Cracker Barrel.

Yep. Whatever private equity firm owns them has decided to run the company into the ground and sell off the assets, probably as part of some real estate play.

And who are the primary shareholders of that publicly traded company? Who have majority stakes in it? It's all blackrock, vanguard, etc. They are calling the shots here, like they do with most woke corporate bullshite.

Public sector unions and government pension funds are probably the biggest group of customers for BlackRock. These customers make it a stipulation for BlackRock to invest in companies with DEI or ESG or whatever the nonsense is called these days. Then BlackRock tells companies basically “Go the Gay Way” or we won’t invest in your company.

So all of the companies hire a bunch of liberal chicks and minorities l, put the pride flags up and ruin the peg game at Cracker Barrel too.

Basically we shouldn’t allow public sector unions or government funded retirement programs to participate in the stock market.

IMO, Cracker Barrel suffered through the Covid epidemic and was never able to come back. I used to pretty much eat breakfast there every Sunday morning and ate there frequently when traveling alone on business. Finally had to quit going because the food quality and the waitstaff got so shitty thst I didn’t want to eat there any more.

They don’t need a brighter paint job….they just need better food and timely service. When you are on the road, you can’t be spending two hours for some shitty food.

A color palette of brown and more brown plus all the dusty old shite on the walls in their restaurants that haven't changed a thing since 1981. Oh my God, the horror. They've updated their interiors, painted them white, took down the closed space lattice work and decluttered the walls of some of the junk you didn't care about in the first place.


While completely failing to address the issue at hand. It’s a waste of shareholders’ money and will not stop the downturn.

It’s akin to adding oil to a knocking engine.

The blueprint to a turnaround already was laid at Chilies. Just copy and take credit. But of course.. the DEI CEO decides to redecorate and wait.

There is nothing more pathetic on this board than a man who chimes in to say “why do you care!!!”

Sure sign they were and are complete fricking dorks their entire lives

Also guaranteed to be an enlightened centrist aka a huge progressive
