Cracker Barrel Reverses Decision, Will Resume Selling Duck Dynasty Products

 

Welp, this didn’t take long: following a public outcry, Cracker Barrel has reversed its decision to pull selected Duck Dynasty products from its shelves due to Phil Robertson’s comments about homosexuality and race relations in a GQ interview published last week.

The company made the announcement on its Facebook page late Sunday morning:

“Our intent was to avoid offending, but that’s just what we’ve done,” the company wrote. “We respect all individuals right to express their beliefs. We certainly did not mean to have anyone think different.”
