But behind the image of biscuits, gravy, and roadside American lies a company culture with some surprisingly specific expectations — including what its employees should eat while traveling for work.  According to internal guidance and multiple reports from employees over the years, Cracker Barrel encourages staff members on official work trips to eat at Cracker Barrel restaurants themselves whenever possible.
