But MAGA ain't smart.

Seriously though: you go with the simpler logo because it can stand out on their rich food products and contrast a rich restaurant/store interior.

I think people hated the restaurant re-design and are lashing out against the logo now, unfairly.

Yup. As I detailed, it was smart to try to appeal to younger customers but also make it more legible for their 70s-80s target, honestly. Line illustrations are hard to reproduce cleanly in embroidery, on packaging, digital, etc., so this made complete sense and was the smart approach.

Yup, they'll stick with the unreadable yellow blob on that sign...
