"I say all of us European Americans start protesting C****er Barrel. It uses an offensive slur and it is deeply offensive and mocks our long and proud heritage.
The name is offensive, their logo stereotypes European Americans as people who sit on chairs and lean against what appears to be a bourbon barrel, claiming we are all a bunch of alcoholics. Sure, they'll SAY it's a "cracker" barrel but everyone knows crackers don't come in barrels, they come in bags and boxes!
Change the name C****er Barrel to Caucasian Barrel. After all, white people should have something to be offended by, too!"

Truth be told here,Crackers didn't always come in a "saltine" box.Originally they came in barrels."Cracker Barrel" is not a racial slur on whites,in that context,it's an object from the past.

It would seem that context nowadays is irrelevant.
I'm proud to be a Cracker![;)]
What the ignorant don't realize when they call someone a cracker is that they are acknowledging that they are the boss.
The term came from the one that cracked the whip!
I found and bought a tee off the web that said:
CRACKER (and don't you forget it!)
Of course, it goes right over the heads of morons.[:D]

Quite true.
The word niggardly is now frowned upon because it sounds too much like something else.

After 16k people jumped on the band wagon, some of whom thought it was serious, he added to it, stating it is satire.
Ya'll know the original author of intended it as satire.

That's how you know it's good satire.
Voltaire and Swift ran into the same problem.

Yeah and while your at it change the meaning of America Express credit cards to how dumb & fast Americans get in debt at 12 % interest while the government and banks gives you 1% (if your lucky} on your money deposits![;)]
serf
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

you need to be quiet - they named it that to keep the blacks out.
Could be that's why chicken'n'waffles sell so well there.
Next they'll be renaming the FireCracker 500 to some less racially derogatory name- maybe the FireExplosive 500 will do as an interim until a committee of racially balanced advisors can find a permanently suitable name.
FireExplosive sounds so very violent, don't you think? It could be perceived as scary by the pajamaboy metrosexuals our society seems to be raising.
