Cramer discussed Sweetgreen, Inc. (NYSE:SG)’s shares in this episode as part of a conversation commenting on the woes faced by the broader restaurant industry. The CNBC TV host believes that just like its peers, CAVA and Chipotle, Sweetgreen, Inc. (NYSE:SG) is also constrained by high prices. Like its peers, the firm has had to cut guidance. Here are Cramer’s recent thoughts about Sweetgreen, Inc. (NYSE:SG) where he discussed how a $15 price level might explain some of the firm’s woes:

“But the fact is that there are others who are similarly, stock, who have 15 dollar price points. Sweetgreens, I had CAVA, I think it’s a great chain, on, but they have 15 dollar offerings. They are being hurt. That’s the spot where you apparently run in trouble with the consumer.”
