s/o do people really LIKE Cracker Barrel?

I used to work there. Their corn bread is pretty amazing. I can’t say I would eat much there as an adult now since that is just not the food I eat. Just know your environment when ordering. Don’t order a salad or anything expecting fresh vegetables.

Wut? What part of the US are you living that grits are unavailable?


Pittsburgh


I live in Pittsburgh and I have both grits and pinto beans in my pantry.

My husband loves it. I’d prob have liked it better hungover in college.

If you don't like the southern-style meat + 3 you should not go to Cracker Barrel.


Ruthies All Day in Arlington does “meat plus three” and the food is bland and has odd textures. The food at Cracker Barrell is better.


You are a weird person, pp.


I must be weird too. Because I think the RAD food is odd tasting. I thought I had Covid because it either has no flavor or an odd metallic taste.

Yes, so good. Their fried chicken is also really good.

Who cares? Really. They employ 55,000 people and a handful said they felt mistreated? So what. That's par for the course. And didn't it turn out that one of those complainig had a history of yelling racism and suing her employer?

I've had a very good salad with grilled chicken there. It was a Cracker Barrel south of Richmond somewhere along the I95. The food we had from the CB near the Delaware beaches was terrible.

I have never eaten there and this thread has convinced me that I haven’t missed anything

It's ok. The cooked vegetables taste like ok southern cooked vegetables, and it's a grade up from stopping at McDonald's.

I haven't eaten at Cracker Barrel in a few years and now that I think about it I want some of their yummy chicken and dumplings and maybe their southern greens.

But can you get the last peg in the hole you started with? That's the challenge...

We love CB. I'm craving chicken and dumplings now....

They now score an 80 in the Human Rights Campaign equality index but 30 years ago they would fire gay employees. I think about that every time I pass a store.
