Jeebus, these people will look for the smallest problem in absolutely anything. If they think the loop around the logo looks like a whip and they're inferring anything other than the fact that saltine crackers used to be shipped in barrels to the general stores across the country, they need their goddamn heads examined, because they're projecting so much that they need their own dedicated VGA cable.
I can't recall what morning radio show I heard it on as it was years ago (might have been the Bob & Tom Show), but I remember a bit where a black comedian was talking with the hosts about how it's rough being on the road and finding a decent place to eat. He was in a smaller city in the Midwest, and the person at the front desk of his hotel suggested Cracker Barrel as it was one of the few places in town. His general reaction was "Say whatnow?" but he went ahead and headed there anyway. Said he was initially a little freaked out over the general decor and whatnot, but once he got sat down they got him taken care of and it was some of the best food he'd ever had on the road. Ended the discussion by saying if he was in a smaller town he'd always check to see if there was one in the area, and eat there.
Now, I'm not going to sit here and say it's the best food ever. At best, it's mass-produced country-style comfort food. But it's damn good comfort food, and I highly doubt they'd turn away anyone as a paying customer unless said person was causing a scene, regardless of their color.
