Cracker Barrel, an establishment known to many a traveler along American highways, has been around for over 50 years and enjoys a healthy amount of support for breakfast and lunch seekers. However, a conservative Texas group is getting hilariously dragged online after tweeting that Cracker Barrel has “fallen” and caved to the so-called “woke mob” for acknowledging Pride Month.
The Texas Family Project, which bills itself on Twitter as “the premier statewide organization engaging in politics and advocating on behalf of the family,” had this to say about Cracker Barrel saluting the LGBTQ+ community for Pride Month and offering a message of true inclusion as everyone should.
“We take no pleasure in reporting that @CrackerBarrel has fallen. A once family friendly establishment has caved to the mob,” read the tweet from the organization.
Immediately, folks on Twitter began piling on the jokes because, really, what is that sentence? Cracker Barrel has fallen? They’re treating the restaurant chain like it’s the last line of defense from an alien invasion. They’re acting like the white walkers finally took down the wall.
How is celebrating Pride Month stopping anyone from going inside Cracker Barrel to get their hands on an Old Timer’s Breakfast or the Southern Fried Chicken Plate? They just want everyone to feel welcome no matter how they identify, love, live, and mind their business. You’re not gonna get any gay on you from eating at Cracker Barrel, weirdos.
Anyway, Twitter is taking care of our light work because the comedy is high and heavy at the expense of the Texas Family Project’s ill-advised tweet. Check out the slander below.

“We take no pleasure in reporting that Cracker Barrel has fallen” might be the funniest sentence ever composed using the English language. https://t.co/HGksFLrimK

I think if Cracker Barrel has fallen to the “woke mob” you should just accept the L, let gay people exist, and choke down your chicken fried steak.

Me: “I gotta stop participating in the ridiculousness of modern discourse.”
Me two hours later: “Do you think they’d let me get a ‘Cracker Barrel has Fallen’ tattoo between chemo treatments?”

the "cracker barrel has fallen" tweet is how I found out that until the mid-'90s cracker barrel had a standing policy of firing any employee who was openly gay but was forced to rescind it after their investors banded together and threatened to fire all of upper management

"We take no pleasure in reporting that Cracker Barrel has fallen" is possibly the funniest tweet ever tweeted. Definitely gives 30-50 feral hogs a run for its money. pic.twitter.com/zXafZdcps5

My Dearest Edwin, the Cracker Barrel has fallen. We are about to lose Chic-fil-A. Hobby Lobby, however, is holding firm. We are still working hard on Target and Bud Light, but I fear the resistance from the woke mob is too much. From the front lines of suburbia, Beulah

I understand that "Cracker Barrel has fallen" is very stupid but I've already seen the first three movies and, honestly, I'll watch anything with Gerard Butler in it.

I often think about leaving the site, but every so often, everyone here has a "there's a dog in the vents" moment. Today we've had Pat Robertson & "Cracker Barrel has fallen," & it's heartening to see people having fun again. pic.twitter.com/S2Vx196T9Q
