January 1, Trump Urges Cracker Barrel Return to Tradition

Wyatt’s Take

• Trump says Cracker Barrel needs to stick with what made it popular.
• Long-time fans are upset about the new logo and changes.
• Company faces backlash and millions in lost market value.

President Trump weighed in as Cracker Barrel faces heat over modern updates and a new logo, which many loyal customers dislike. The president advised returning to the classic look and honoring what made the chain a favorite.

“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,” Trump posted on Truth Social.

He encouraged the company to use the situation as an opportunity and hold a major press conference. Cracker Barrel’s attempts at modernizing are sparking threats of boycotts and anger across social media, while management claims most feedback is positive.

Cracker Barrel’s stock value took a hit, losing $143 million, raising doubts about their approach. The company responded with a statement recognizing their customers’ strong opinions and promised to preserve the old-fashioned charm people expect.

They highlighted classic touches like the iconic rocking chairs, vintage decor, and the well-known character “Uncle Herschel,” vowing he will remain visible throughout the brand.

The company acknowledged room to improve, saying they would keep listening to customer input and stick to serving comfort food and country hospitality.
