- The View cohosts discussed the Cracker Barrel logo controversy during Hot Topics.

- "Folks lost their minds," Whoopi Goldberg assessed.

- Goldberg said she knows why people objected to the logo changing to remove the orange man.

Whoopi Goldberg, who famously knows aliens are among us, also knows why conservatives were angry about the Cracker Barrel restaurant chain changing its logo to remove its signature orange man.

"It's crazy what we do in this country," the 69-year-old *Ghost* star said on Wednesday's episode of *The View* during a Hot Topics chat about backlash to the chain's decision to simplify its logo.

"Folks lost their minds," Goldberg assessed, adding that the chain also "just canceled plans to renovate the restaurants" in the aftermath of blowback to the now-reversed decision to alter the logo.

"Now, I love a Cracker Barrel," Goldberg said. "They needed a little uplift. They needed a little dusting off. It would've been fine. Why did this spark so much outrage?"

Legal expert Sunny Hostin said that she wants "to see the dude on the barrel," because he signals to her that "good biscuits" are in store when she goes to dine.

Joy Behar then asked, "Why did they say it was 'woke' to change it?" with Goldberg jumping in to confirm, "I know. I actually know."

The EGOT-winning actress then got up from the Hot Topics table to approach a large screen sitting behind the panelists, which showed the old Cracker Barrel logo vs. the proposed new logo that sent conservatives into a frenzy.

"What do you see? He's orange," Goldberg said, pointing to the man on the logo in a clear nod to Donald Trump. The audience applauded as Goldberg made her way back to her seat, high-fiving Behar in the process.

"I understand. They don't want to lose that orange man anywhere they can get him," Goldberg said.

"Guys, they wanted to make it a little nicer inside," she continued. "It's not woke or un-woke, it has nothing to do with that. They wanted to upgrade it, and it became about something else."

Amid backlash from customers to the proposed Cracker Barrel logo change, Trump weighed in via his Truth Social platform, writing that the chain "should go back to the old logo, admit a mistake based on customer response (the ultimate Poll), and manage the company better than ever before," after many accused the company of going "woke" with their alterations.

*The View* airs weekdays at 11 a.m. ET/10 a.m. PT on ABC.
