Anonymous Coward User ID: 1451036 Germany 07/01/2011 04:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A friend of mine is black and pointed something out that I hadn't thought of. We were going out to eat with two girls, one suggested Cracker Barrel and my friend said he won't eat there. I asked why and he asked if I would eat at a place called The N!@@er Barrel. That hadn't crossed my mind before Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1449523Most of the ones I have stopped at had decent food. As for would I eat at a place called NI&&er barrel, well, if the food was good, sure, why not. |

Quoting: El SamyazaMaybe you told the waitress your wife is of "the original sumerian race", and expected special treatment. And they were having a good laugh in the kitchen about it. |
Innocynic User ID: 1420503 United States 07/01/2011 04:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | LOL. You folks are obviously too young to understand what Cracker Barrel means. My dad, who was born in 1895, often told me that as a kid he loved to walk from their farm to town with his dad. One of the main reasons was that after their business was finished they would go to the general store and have a cracker barrel meal before the long walk home. That meal was a big slice of hoop cheese and saltine crackers which were packaged in and sold from a small wooden barrel. The more affluent (not dad) could go all out and eat a sawmill supper which added sardines to the cheese and crackers. |
