President Trump Urges Cracker Barrel to Bring Back Country Charm

Todd Starnes-Opinion : Aug 26, 2025  ToddStarnes.com

"Cracker Barrel should go back to the old logo, admit a mistake based on customer response (the ultimate Poll), and manage the company better than ever before. They got a Billion Dollars worth of free publicity if they play their cards right. Very tricky to do, but a great opportunity. Have a major News Conference today. Make Cracker Barrel a WINNER again..." -President Donald Trump, via Truth Social

[ToddStarnes.com] The Biscuit-in-Chief has officially weighed in on the Great Cracker Barrel Controversy of 2025: it's time to reverse course and bring back the country charm, says President Donald Trump. (Screengrab image: via YouTube-calibradsimmons)

The president also shared a message from Steak & Shake calling on Cracker Barrelto fire its woke diversity-hire chief executive officer:

Cracker Barrel should go back to the old logo, admit a mistake based on customer response (the ultimate Poll), and manage the company better than ever before. They got a Billion Dollars worth of free publicity if they play their cards right. Very tricky to do, but a great opportunity. Have a major News Conference today. Make Cracker Barrel a WINNER again. Remember, in just a short period of time I made the United States of America the "HOTTEST" Country anywhere in the World. One year ago, it was "DEAD." Good luck!

The once-beloved country-themed restaurant known for its fried chicken, buttermilk biscuits and country charm has been ravaged by a woke mob of corporate executives and stylists. They renovated restaurants, discarded the "country" clutter, added vegan dishes to the menu, started serving booze and changed the logo—erasing the image of Uncle Hershel sitting next to a barrel.

The company literally removed the Cracker and the barrel from the logo.

Instead, Cracker Barrel said they were interested in appealing to a new demographic of diners. So, they opened a pop-up store in Brooklyn and invited Gen-Z social media influencers to sample their food. In response to that, the Tennessee company's stock plunged more than 9 percent.

"If the last few days have shown us anything, it's how deeply people care about Cracker Barrel. We're truly grateful for your heartfelt voices," Cracker Barrel said in a statement. "You've also shown us that we could've done a better job sharing who we are and who we'll always be." (Screengrab image: via GMA)

Cracker Barrel CEO Julie Felss Masino appeared on "Good Morning America" on Aug. 19, saying the company needed to refresh its restaurants and stores.

"Cracker Barrel needs to feel like the Cracker Barrel for today and for tomorrow," Masino said. "The soul of Cracker Barrel's not changing—the rocking chairs are still there, the fireplace is there, the peg game—all the things that make Cracker Barrel Cracker Barrel."

What she failed to mention is that some of those rocking chairs are now sporting rainbow colors and the peg game was revised so as not to offend losers.

The game previously mocked losers: "Leave only one—you're a genius. Leave two and you're purty smart. Leave three and you're just plain dumb. Leave four or mor'n you're just plain eg-no-ra-moose."

Now, peg games say if you leave three or more, "Don't be embarrassed, try again!"

Oh, great. Cracker Barrel is now giving out participation trophies. Lord have mercy. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
