FORMER CRACKER BARREL WORKER REVEALS THE REAL REASON THEY TOOK APPLE DUMPLINGS OFF THE MENU
In a video that has drawn over 59,000 views on TikTok, user @theharpsichord says the comforting and rich apple dumplings were removed because they were high in calorie density, and the company did not want to put that number in print.
“Sometimes I randomly think about how I used to work at Cracker Barrel and when they were forced to put all the nutritional info and calories on the menus, they had to take apple dumplings off the menu because it had so many calories in it,” the poster says in the video.
Viewers say they miss the dessert too.“I think about the apple dumpling all the time,” one commenter wrote. “That toasted pecan topping. I got one every day after my shift!”
