LEBANON, Tenn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Families mapping out vacation road trips will find summer flavors and fun at every turn with a stop at Cracker Barrel Old Country Store® along with added attractions from June 6 through August 10.

"Road trips are summer traditions for many families, and we hope our new Flavors Across America selections of regional food favorites will be a hit with travelers of all ages," said Cracker Barrel Chef Bill Kintzler.
