Cracker Barrel has removed Phil Robertson and Duck Dynasty themed products from stores and restaurants over concern they might offend some of their guests.
TMZ called several Cracker Barrel locations, and the managers told the gossip website the products that were removed were the ones that depicted Phil’s face on the packaging.
C.B. offers this explanation … “We operate within the ideals of fairness, mutual respect and equal treatment of all people. These ideals are the core of our corporate culture.”
As for most of the remaining products, folks can find them in the sale bin, says TMZ.
TRUCK DRIVERS TO BOYCOTT CRACKER BARREL DON'T EAT OR SPEND YOUR MONEY THERE.
