I prefer these over the regular Oreos, imo. I finished one package and I have another to go. Target was selling these @ 2 for $9.

Cracker Barrel modernizing their restaurants including ditching the barrel with a new logo!

BizCat · 08-21-2025, 03:13 PM

I haven't been to a CB in YEARS. There's one 20 minutes from me, and I have thought about going.. but who knows. Are they keeping their store?

I've never been to one but think the older logo is much better.

I guess they wanted a more clean and sleek look but I agree.

It's because they have removed everything that made Cracker Barrel a different and unique place to grab something to eat.

I have heard the country stores they use to all have and the wooden furniture that would be for sale and for people to sit in outside have been removed. Clearly the new CEO is chopping off everything possible to more then likely try and show the board her moves are helping, when all it is are cost cutting moves that more then likely will turn the actual people who go to them off. But idiot CEO's who have no common sense many times dont understand this, and think they know more then the customers who currently liked the place.

I heard the rocking chairs will remain but who knows. The CEO is doing what Kathleen Kennedy did to Star Wars.

I wish Cracker Barrel’s would open up in New York City and on Long Island in New York, near the interstates, parkways and other highways. It will likely never happen, though.

I don’t know what to make of either logo, either. Neutral for both, I suppose.

You're probably right, but I don't really care. I liked their food, but I couldn't stand the tacky country store crap. So, it's no real skin off my nose if all that goes. I get why losing that stuff would hurt Cracker Barrel, though. It's part of what makes them unique and what differentiates themselves from the rest of the pack. I just never cared for. I'm surprised that this is the first I'm hearing of all this. I live like 30 minutes from their headquarters. They were founded in Lebanon, TN. It's just another thing in this town to be erased.

The new logo is dull and uninspired, but I do not for an instant understand why some people are angered by it as has been reported in the news.

^ That's legit one of the best reasons to go in there! Grab and bite and afterwards, browse the store.

I always got breakfast at Cracker Barrel, no matter what time of day. I love me some chicken fried steak!

I think it’s moreso them changing the store layout. They’re adding booths which I feel is a good idea!

Kind of ridiculous but their stock took a 10% hit today because of the logo change.

Cracker Barrel loses almost $100 million in value as stock plunges after new logo release

Vilya · 08-22-2025, 02:00 AM

I am posting this here, too, because my mouse has copy and paste buttons that need pushing; they really do.

I get hit with a hammer tomorrow. I will be seeing my neurologist and she hits me all over with her little reflex hammer. Sometimes she has her resident beat me first and then she comes in and beats me herself. Then they compare notes. I'm doing my part to advance the study of medicine in general and of my rare disease in particular. I want a boy scout medical merit badge.

Right after that I get to see one of my cardiologists. A neurology and cardiology double header for Friday. It will make for another long day.

After a weekend reprieve, it is back at it Monday with the first of three appointments next week, which is one less than the four that I will have had this week. If anyone is having trouble being seen by their doctor it is because all of them are seeing me.
