I eat at Cracker Barrel's about once a week when I'm on the road and I travel 3 out of 4 weeks on average. They've got a great pancake, eggs and bacon breakfast. It's not like home, but it's something.

I will bail on them however. Not that I'm a huge Duck fan, but I hate sissys and coward corporations that make money off personalities and when those people bump into the politically correct media, they get tossed overboard by those same corporations. When Rush Limbaugh lost ProFlowers and Carbonite, they both suffered tremendously because they pulled their advertisement from his show when he correctly called Sandra Fluke a very *friendly* person.

Live by the sword, die by the sword. I know Cracker Barrel won't miss my little $10 breakfast bill every two weeks, but I'll either go to a local eatery or Bob Evans.

Stopped eating at cracker barrel a while back, the corn muffins tasted like saw dust and the food just wasn't very good overall.
As to Phil, he was asked a question and responded according to his beliefs, can't see any harm in that. Being honest has never been a crime in my eyes even when it doesn't fit the PC world. Think A&E has bitten off more than it can chew.

Cracker Barrel just reversed course and announced that they have put the Duck Commander items back on the shelves.
I really like CB. I travel a lot in my work, and carry a map of all of the CB locations stuffed between my seat and center console of my car.
My favorite is the open faced roast beef, but I substitute turnip greens for the mashed potatoes.
I don't eat cornbread, because it all tastes like sawdust, regardless of where I might get it. Far too dry for me, unless you put about a 1/2 pound of butter on every piece.
My town is the headquarters of Bob Evans, and I think CB food is far superior to BE.
My only real complaint about CB is that their real estate department won't pay the price for the easy to find locations off of freeways - sometimes it's like a snipe hunt to find the restaurant once you get off of the freeway.

CB's announcement said that they were deluged with customer complaints about taking the stuff off of the shelves.
Another person posted a complaint here about their service. Odd, but I find the service uniformly excellent. If you hit the place when some senior citizen tour bus happens to pull in at lunch, they can get a bit slow in service, but what restaurant wouldn't when slammed with 70 extra people at once?
It may sound a bit cold, but if I were in that genre of restaurant business, I would try to reserve a section for adults only. Nothing bugs me more than to be seated at any eatery amidst a bunch of crying babies or ill-behaved toddlers.

Maybe that's why I never have any problems. Although I had a meeting in Little Rock with three or four people sitting around a table and the service was excellent. I've only eaten breakfast there, I can't remember eating any other meal there.

Reply #21 - 12/22/13 at 12:55:57 I eat lunch there. When I eat breakfast, it's at home with Egg Beaters. That's what 2 stents in the heart will do to your diet. Once in a while, if I'm on the road past normal dinner time, I'll eat dinner there too.

Does he also condemn football?... because the Bible also condemns those that eat or touch pigskin and pork...
Was God only kidding about that part?...
Also,... eating shellfish... wearing clothes of mixed fabric,... wearing gold,... getting a divorce,... tattoos and piercings... trimming the sides of your hair...
Do you see any finger waving at people that wear no-iron t-shirts?...

Serowbot -

The dietary rules of the Old Testament are a part of what Christians call "The Old Covenant". Not being a theologian, my understanding is that the Old Covenant is based upon the laws given to Moses. Strict adherence to them was virtually impossible, so, Jews of the time could only obtain forgiveness of sin by doing acts of contrition, such as sacrificing livestock on holy days, and other means with which I'm not familiar.
Jesus referred to belief in Himself as the Savior of all believers as all that is needed for salvation as "The New Covenant".
So, to Christians, the New Covenant replaced the old, and adherence to those old dietary laws is no longer required.
Of course, practicing Jews still obey them, as do Muslims, since neither believes in the New Covenant.

He said the Bible is historical narrative of how to achieve salvation from various points in time (Old & New Testament) beginning from the creation of the world.

Cracker barrel is back pedaling now.

Who even cares? I'm so tired of hearing about this.

I don't give a sheet what anyone does - but know this: if you live outside the societal norm you can expect to be judged.
Whether you're gay, an amputee, get a nose ring, whatever. It's not fair but expect it.

He said its Sin, he said
"Sin isnt logical", He was saying he doesnt understand how a man can want another man, its confusing to him, If anyone doesnt kjnow its wrong, then they are missing something in their heart. I wasnt taught that man on man sex was messed up, I knew that.
Ahh, but I digress..
Phil didnt "condemn" anyone. Listen to his words. Go watch a clip. The only one I found my McAfee warned me away from, so,,meeh,, Ive read that he ended with

But, Im not one to judge.

& we are under Grace now, Jesus died for our sins, because no one could be saved under the Law.

We call them "rock and roll" churches. You and I are in complete agreement that they make a mockery of the tenets of the faith they claim to adhere to...

As for wearing gold, never have liked how it looks. My wedding band is titanium.
