| Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
| Income Taxes | Income Taxes For the Thirteen Weeks Ended June 27, 2026, and Thirteen Weeks Ended June 28, 2025, our effective tax rate was 29.6% and 36.8%, respectively. For the Twenty-Six Weeks Ended June 27, 2026, and Twenty-Six Weeks Ended June 28, 2025, our effective tax rate was 29.7% and 33.2%, respectively. Under U.S. accounting rules for income taxes, interim effective tax rates may vary significantly depending on the actual operating results in the various tax jurisdictions, as well as changes in the valuation allowance related to the expected recovery of deferred tax assets. The tax provision for the Thirteen Weeks Ended June 27, 2026, included $5,731 of tax expense, or 3.6 percentage points of the effective tax rate, which is associated with withholding tax expense from our business operations in the Latin America region, primarily from our Miami Export business. The tax provision for the Thirteen Weeks Ended June 28, 2025, included $4,721 of tax expense, or 7.9 percentage points of the effective tax rate, which is associated with withholding tax expense from our business operations in the Latin America region, primarily from our Miami Export business. The tax provision for the Twenty-Six Weeks Ended June 27, 2026, included $10,849 of tax expense, or 3.6 percentage points of the effective tax rate, which is associated with withholding tax expense from our business operations in the Latin America region, primarily from our Miami Export business. The tax provision for the Twenty-Six Weeks Ended June 28, 2025, included $7,819 of tax expense, or 4.9 percentage points of the effective tax rate, which is associated with withholding tax expense from our business operations in the Latin America region, primarily from our Miami Export business. Our effective tax rate during these periods differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the items noted above, as well as the relative mix of earnings or losses and various tax rates, including state taxes, within the jurisdictions in which we operate, such as: (a) losses in certain jurisdictions in which we are not able to record a tax benefit; (b) changes in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets; and (c) changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof. At June 27, 2026, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $17,532 compared to $16,522 at December 27, 2025. Substantially all of the remaining gross unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate in the period of recognition. We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Total accruals for interest and penalties on our unrecognized tax benefits were $10,142 and $9,942 at June 27, 2026, and December 27, 2025, respectively. Our future effective tax rate will continue to be affected by changes in the relative mix of taxable income and losses and various tax rates in the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets or changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof. In addition, in the normal course of business, we are subject to tax examination by taxing authorities in the United States, states and over fifty foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. In our material tax jurisdictions, the statute of limitations is open, in general, for three to five years. In the United States, we are no longer subject to federal tax examinations for years prior to 2023. It is possible that within the next twelve months, (1) ongoing tax examinations of several of our states and foreign jurisdictions may be resolved, (2) new tax exams may commence, and (3) other issues may be effectively settled. However, we do not expect our assessment of unrecognized tax benefits to change significantly over that time. On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the United States. The OBBBA includes significant tax-related provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions which took effect in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The OBBBA did not have a material impact on our annual effective tax rate in 2025, and we do not expect it to have a material impact on our estimated annual effective tax rate in 2026.
