imagine making food so good, they model a whole country after you
Dude if they made a country based on Olive Garden it would be so hype
We have enough violence in the world right now, don’t involve the Italians too
They have a fascist government again, so I’d say it’s a little too late for that…
Albania finally might have an use for all those bunkers
What a way to be reminded of Albania being much closer to Italy than I thought!
Too bad Italy is a myth like Wyoming.
Or Australia
australia’s hoax Is so stupid, AM i right? liKe, how could you even lIve unDer the earth? They woulD be fallING into space
I know right I think the earth isn’t flat I think its a pyramid with a tescos on top that’ll explain all of this
Today I learned Italy is the Ohio of Europe.
That’s a cruel fate.
“Wait what” -me, an italian
Oh you think that’s a take? That’s nothing.
Italian cuisine is distuinguished by one main thing, oily veggies on carbs. Yeah you got cured meat but so do everyone else. You’re the oily veggie boot.
Italy, but everything is made of hot dogs.
Glizzaly.
Thanks. I hate it.
Olive garden breadsticks taste like microwaved Wonder bread with vegetable oil and table salt sprinkled on.
The world is cuckoo bananas.
So let me clarify something before I get to the rest of my comment…I LOVE a lot of cheap, technically shitty quality foods. Fast food burger and fries?? I’m there. Microwaved food at chain restaurants? Loving it. And I fucking love eating the free bread at restaurants.
But I just do NOT understand the hype for Olive Garden bread sticks. They look and taste EXACTLY like a particular kind of cheese stuffed bread sticks (minus the stuffed cheese) that were mass produced and sold in public schools all throughout my childhood. They were tolerable but not great. When I first went to an Olive Garden I was transported back into grade school with the exact smell, look, and taste.
I just don’t get it. Even shit-tier places like Little Caesars do bread sticks better.
I would do borderline illegal things for some fucking Cra-z-bread.
And while I understand where you’re coming from about Olive Garden’s sticks, I frankly don’t care. Those be some tasty mass produced bread product sticks, especially when dipped in their chicken & gnocchi soup. But I get it. The hype is too much for them to live up to. They were probably REALLY good about 20 or so years ago. Enshitification to cut costs.
But today, I don’t care, I have a very unhealthy relationship with bread and will shove them in my face whenever I get the chance.
If you like bread, you should visit Germany. Cannot even tell you how many different breads we got.
My German grandfather mostly ate pumpernickel. No thank you.
I really am a slut for bread tbh. I even dig those $2 loaves from the Walmart bakery.
I think the problem for me is that since the taste is identical, Olive Garden bread sticks have such a strong association with school cafeteria food for me. If I never had those breadstick things all the time at school growing up I might have a different take on Olive Garden’s breadsticks.
Their salad is amazing though. I could eat bowl after bowl.
Absolutely agreed 👌
Red Lobster cheddar biscuits are so good, I wish Cheddar was a real place too.
If Olive Garden was my first experience with Italian food, I’d wish Italy didn’t exist.
I was eating at Olive Garden one time with a friend when he declared that Olive Garden restaurants consumed 20% of the world’s supply of black olives.
italy is not, Italy is
same but Jerma, I wish that funny little PSYCHO was real, the guy that KILLED 5 PEOPLE IN 1888 AND IS STILL AT LARGE
I doubt he’s still at large 135 years later. He prolly dead.
that’s the joke
ITT, people writing Italy but pronouncing it Iddally
Olive Garden is disgusting
You better thank whatever pantheon you worship that Italy isn’t real
It used to be good. They went downhill at some point in the last 5-10 years. Their bread sticks always taste like store bought now and they got rid of my favorite meal (the steak gorgonzola Alfredo).
The last time they were halfway decent was back in the 90s. LOL
Where do you think 99% of restaurants supply their food from? It’s all store bought. They just make it for you.
Where else can you get a margarita and margherita?
Eataly is a thing.
it’s very real i saw it in rome once
Reminds of that old joke. You know what they call Chinese food in China? Food.
Worst pizza I ever had was in Rome. Probably because they tried to make an American pizza and failed.
why would you want to eat american pizza in rome…
Because I was 7.
It’s so good, it makes me wish family were real.
