They don’t know their customer base. Just like the Hims CEO offering jobs to pro-Palestine college protestors.

College kids don’t have problems with boners.

Dumbasses.

This is utter bull shite stupidity. Who gives a frick if CB wants to try and sell some rainbow rocking chairs. I hate cancel culture bull shite no matter if it comes from the left or the right. If seeing a rainbow rocking chair offends you, don't buy the fricking chair.

Reminds me of one of the actors from Doctor Who telling fans who are upset about the current state of affairs of the show that they shouldn’t let the door hit them on the way out. He also claimed that for every one fan lost 3 to 5 would replace them because of “queer” representation.

Update : the most recent Doctor Who episode was The LOWEST rated in franchise history, starting way back in 1963.

It has always been one of those "desperate for some real food" while going on a long road trip. They opened one about 5 minutes for me about 15 years ago and I probably have only eaten there about 3 times.

It's a good place to crash overnight for us when we're trying to get somewhere without stopping too much. Bonus is a decent enough breakfast before hitting the road in the morning.

I don't really give a frick what color the rocking chairs are.

Yep. Know your clientele. Having said that I haven’t seen a rainbow chair at the Cracker Barrel near me. I would imagine it would wind up in the fireplace.

I stopped going when I asked for more syrup. They gave me a little bottle and charged me for it. They use to give you biscuits before you ordered your meal and they stopped doing that. Most customers didn't know is they have been cutting corners for awhile.

We stopped for the last time about two years ago at one in East Texas. Wanted something other than fast food, and i had always liked their meatloaf lunch. Never again. Hubby and i were deathly ill for 3-4 days solid. Emailed corporate but got no answer. Surely we weren’t the only ones who got sick that day. Never again there or any other CB.

They do.

And they know they're dropping dead left and right or going into retirement homes...

and that's why they're making desperate, nonsensical moves to appeal to the younger demographic that has the most disposable income, who will never eat at their restaurants.

Nobody ever said Capitalism makes sense a lot of the time.

Exactly.

What the 'eff is wrong with these executives that they are so tone deaf to their customer base? They did this AFTER the Bud Light fiasco.
