In reply to the discussion: Anti-wokers losing their shit over Cracker Barrel logo change [View all]thesquanderer
(13,124 posts)43. If the image on the right is a barrel, the image on the left can be seen as a cracker, and the K even has a whip!
My guess is that today there are more people aware of the racial slang use of the word "cracker" than there are people who are aware that crackers ever came in barrels. Maybe this is why MAGA folk are so upset about the change.
On the plus side, at least they didn't name it Crackkker Barrel.
