      They’re called grits and it’s really more of a porridge than a dip.

    Donald Trump on Tuesday called on Cracker Barrel to bring back its old logo featuring Uncle Herschel.

    Trump is well versed in the Crackle Bargel lore and knows Uncle Herschel’s backstory.

      No such thing as bad publicity; restaurant sales are down, drum up fake outrage for headlines, revert and get a bump from chuds.

    Instead of getting rid of the pictures they should have gotten rid of the text. After all, you’ve got a barrel, and you’ve got a cracker. It’s just like a couple of pictograms.

    im-gay-cracker-barrel-logo

    I thought this new logo was pretty good. Some people must have thought it wasn’t advertising the brand clearly enough, but that’s clearly a crackkker with a barrel so I don’t see the problem.

    Biggest winners: The graphic design company that was contracted to make the new logo and potentially all the contracts for all the new branded stuff that probably was already in production.

    Biggest losers: maybe all the local general contractors, construction crews, and interior designers who aren’t going to get paid for the 500 or so locations that aren’t going to be renovated.
