imagine making food so good, they model a whole country after you

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Dude if they made a country based on Olive Garden it would be so hype

[-] Keepitpushin@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

We have enough violence in the world right now, don't involve the Italians too

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 9 points 1 year ago

They have a fascist government again, so I'd say it's a little too late for that..

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Albania finally might have an use for all those bunkers

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 3 points 1 year ago

What a way to be reminded of Albania being much closer to Italy than I thought!

[-] supercriticalcheese@feddit.it 1 points 1 year ago

Food is a dead serious matter in Italy!

[-] Murais@lemmy.one 11 points 1 year ago

Italy, but everything is made of hot dogs.

Glizzaly.

[-] Roflmasterbigpimp@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] dingus@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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.

[-] ThtCrzyBstrd@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 1 year ago

If you like bread, you should visit Germany. Cannot even tell you how many different breads we got.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

My German grandfather mostly ate pumpernickel. No thank you.

[-] dingus@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Their salad is amazing though. I could eat bowl after bowl.

[-] FunnyUsername@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Absolutely agreed 👌

[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Too bad Italy is a myth like Wyoming.

[-] ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago
[-] Siegfried@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

australia's hoax Is so stupid, AM i right? liKe, how could you even lIve unDer the earth? They woulD be fallING into space

[-] ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

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

[-] lutillian@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

Today I learned Italy is the Ohio of Europe.

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

That's a cruel fate.

Red Lobster cheddar biscuits are so good, I wish Cheddar was a real place too.

[-] ThePantser@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

italy is not, Italy is

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.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 1 year ago

If Olive Garden was my first experience with Italian food, I'd wish Italy didn't exist.

[-] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago

same but Jerma, I wish that funny little PSYCHO was real, the guy that KILLED 5 PEOPLE IN 1888 AND IS STILL AT LARGE

[-] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

I doubt he's still at large 135 years later. He prolly dead.

[-] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

that's the joke

[-] tiziodcaio@feddit.it 5 points 1 year ago

I'm ChatGPT, a computer program developed by OpenAI. I'm not an Italian guy or a human being because I'm a text-based AI model designed to generate responses based on the text input I receive and the vast amount of information I was trained on. My purpose is to assist and provide information, but I don't have personal experiences or a physical presence like a human.

/S I'm Italian, really

[-] ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

He no rel bro so sad :(

[-] Mr_Blott@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

ITT, people writing Italy but pronouncing it Iddally

[-] Techmaster@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Olive Garden is disgusting

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

You better thank whatever pantheon you worship that Italy isn't real

[-] ringwraithfish@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

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).

[-] Okkai@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Where do you think 99% of restaurants supply their food from? It's all store bought. They just make it for you.

[-] Techmaster@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

The last time they were halfway decent was back in the 90s. LOL

[-] ryathal@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Where else can you get a margarita and margherita?

[-] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago
[-] nekothegamer@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

it's very real i saw it in rome once

[-] Dagwood222@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Reminds of that old joke. You know what they call Chinese food in China? Food.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Worst pizza I ever had was in Rome. Probably because they tried to make an American pizza and failed.

[-] nekothegamer@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

why would you want to eat american pizza in rome...

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Because I was 7.

[-] ivanafterall@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

It's so good, it makes me wish family were real.

[-] ShitOnABrick@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago
