Ryan Koch of Des Moines started the Change.org petition five days ago and it already has over 13,000 signatures.
“I say all of us European Americans start protesting C****er Barrel,” Koch writes in the petition opening. “It uses an offensive slur and it is deeply offensive and mocks our long and proud heritage.”
Cracker Barrel, which has been in business since 1969 and now operates over 600 locations of restaurants and shops, says that it is aware of the petition but has no plans to change its "controversial" moniker. A spokesperson sent the following statement to WFTS.:
