Here's a logo comparison of old to be, because the article didn't for it for some reason:
I oppose this logo change not for a political reason or anything of that ilk, but only because it's yet another senseless and uninspired simplification of a brand that eliminates the distinctiveness of its silhouette and turns it into another bland and uninspired sponge cake with no flavor. Say what you like about Cracker Barrel and their food (and I'm sure many will), but at least when you saw one of their signs on a pole from the interstate you knew damn well what it was.
Compare it now to the Denny's logo:
Bojangles:
Or Golden Corral:
Etc.
Wow, some text in a yellow ovoid diamondy blob. How original. No iconography whatsoever. It's barely even a wordmark. I wonder how much some asshole got paid to come up with this and how I can get in on that game.
At least put the brown border around it back. It looks so plain.
Republicans really love cancel culture I guess 🤣 🤣 🤣
Finally a bipartisan agreement that the new logo sucks
I think that the idea of simplifying a logo is fine, but this drops a lot of the feel.
and the feel of cracker barrel is critical to the whole experience
Is it really agreement? Do you feel that the new logo sucks because it's flat, uninspired, and anodyne? Or do you feel that the new logo sucks because it's an attack by the evil, communist, socialist, libdem, woke, LGBTQ community to remove all white culture from American society?
Broken clocks are right twice a day.
Sometimes a calculator is a clock.
The day has finally come when we can embrace felon rapist pedophile supporters as our brothers and sisters.
They just keep getting weirder and weirder.
In case anyone was wondering if conservatism was a mental disorder.
Nah. They chose this. End them.
ok, so since we’re talking about the cracker barrel logo, can i ask the question i’ve always had about it?
what is the symbol/shape under the text? it’s like a bean with a pointy bit. is that just a style flourish? is it a silhouette of something foreign to my eye?
i’ve wondered this in isolation for years, but there was never enough interest in the cracker barrel logo for me to inquire about this until now.
Kidney bean
my money is on style-flourish as you've mentioned, but that pointy bit does seem out of place.
Oh I thought it was supposed to evoke the bottom of a rocking chair, but idk actually.
Maybe the side view of a saddle? It feels familiar but not sure.
I always assumed it was a lasso.
It's a turd.
which is coincidentally what you'll make after eating at cracker barrel...checkmate librulzz /s
specifically a constipation turd.
They're still mad about Cracker Barrel for ending segregated seating in 2004... after a lawsuit.

do you think they are woke or cringe?? hey what about their commercials??? talk about the brands
we all have to talk about american brands bro this is what real life is
Imagine attaching your identity so much to a chain restaurant, then again, that's all there are in most Right Wing areas in America.
they have a very short attention span, they attach to any thing new and shiny that comes along. which is why putting everyting in gold is so common with these people, or paying up the wazoo for a low quality item.
Obligatory "OrDeR cRaCkEr BaRgLe!!1!" meme reference.
is that the golden corral with a gift shop attached?
Something something Buttfuckers
Right wingers are idiots, in the sense of being exclusively emotional driven. Like children, without the excuse of being children
Fucking really? When they fired huge percentage of the kitchen staff and ruined service, when they switched the suppliers to cheaper and mostly pre prepared ingredients, when they cut potion sizes and jacked prices. That was fine, no problem… but, they changed the logo… slightly? DISASTOR!
Like, this really is what I find absurd. That people are so willing to let their discontent be redirected to symbology, rather than question systems making things materially worse.
As insignificant as a mid quality restaurant chain is, it just seems emblematic.
Because it's a perfect representation of their cult behavior. Brainwashed into only caring about surface level snapshots of issues instead of actual material details.
That said, new logo is actually trash compared to the original. Can we please just let this trend of minimalist corpo slop die already!?
Honestly, If they changed the logos of things but did’t gut the quality… it would really not matter.
A lot of folks lack curiosity.
They fired Brad's wife
