I've got a question about the Olive Garden, and I feel as though this is the perfect forum to ask!
So I was at the Olive Garden this weekend for Mother's Day--me, my wife, my MIL and my FIL (and our 4 month old). There are four of us ordering food there (my daughter is still on the bottle), and when it comes time for breadsticks, they bring out 5.

They've always done that. They bring out one more breadstick than there is people ordering food.

Do you suppose the folks at Olive Garden subtly seek conflict amoungst dining parties? As in, "When you're here, you're a disfunctional family"?

Just a thought.....

2. The last time I went to Olive Garden the last breadstick turned into a conch
so to speak. Luckily the power came back on just before we were about to sacrifice our designated "Piggy".

It was a rough 4 minutes.

either do the same or bring out one less than the nmber of people in the party.

4. Olive Garden and its patrons thrive on dysfunction.
Or so I hear.
