Why do people flock to The Olive Garden?

[Straight Shooter]

After reading the story of "El Pozolero" in Mexico.... I kind of lost my apetite for either menudo or pozole :throwup:

Well, except for when "buelita" makes some of that! :drool2:

Didn't he just dissolve bodies in acid or something? that has nothing to do with menudo or pozole

 

[Red Spyder]

^ Actually, I did read some place that he dissolved SOME bodies in acid and SOME did end up as pozole that he sold to unsuspecting customers. I may need to look for that story but there was someone who used the dead bodies as meat.

If I'm in a strange city/town, I almost always go to chain restaurants, unless someone (who wouldn't want to poison me) is willing to show me around or tell me about the good places to eat. I'm kind of neutral on Olive Garden. I don't **** it and I pretty well know what the food will be like, so it's a safe place to eat when I'm traveling. But no, it's nothing like home cooked Italian food.

where im at, its just a tourist destination. snowbirds keep that place in business. i dont know whats with old people and olive garden..

Nobody goes to these places for authentic Italian or Mexican. They go because it's quick, easy and cheap.

I've never been to Olive Garden. I don't think there is any up here in Canada.

Exactly. I don't got to Taco Bell because I want Mexican food. I go to Taco Bell because the food is cheap and tastes good to me. And I love tacos.

I don't go to Olive Garden often, but if I do, I don't go there because I want Italian food. I go because I like the breadsticks and wouldn't mind some chicken flatbread.

People aren't going to these restaurants because they want authentic food. Most people don't give a rats ass about "authentic" food. I sure as **** don't. If it tastes good, I will continue going back, regardless of whether it's a Chinese restaurant run by white guys, an Italian place with not a single Italian working in the kitchen, or an Italian place with actual Italians in it.

And I LOVE Red Lobster. The Caesar salads are amazing and I **** seafood, but I always get the Cajun Chicken Linguine Alfredo. That stuff is the best Alfredo EVER. I love it so much. And the cheddar biscuits? :drool2:

You, me, and the next guy all have different tastes. You only want it because it's authentic. I only want it because it tastes good. The next guy thinks everything tastes like **** unless his *** cooks it. And that guy over there, he's homeless and just wants some damn food.

Haha! And what's with old people and Ponderosa? Every time I go to Ponderosa, I'm the only young person there. I feel so out of place. They all flock to the same place.

No wonder you got a ban. How dare you ******** the fine name that brought us the fine quality of Red Lobster. I used to like you squallumz but you have just shown yourself to be just another of the far left trying to destroy corporate industry. You should lick my unwashed testicles for that statement. Olive Garden and Darden Restaurants are amongst the finest in quality and service. You make me sick.

Angry Bob.

I so want to change your screen name to AngryBob

Angry? No, but I do have my moments.

True story. When E-Coli first broke out at Taco Bell several years ago I was a victim. I ate at the South Plainfield, NJ store and I got sick. The symptoms were scary and I won't describe them. I love Taco Bell so much I didn't report it fearing they might close down. They did close that store. I just found another still open and hoped for the best. The store reopened and I went back. For the price of a candy bar I can get a crunchy taco. I'll eat there till I hear they use dog **** for meat. I sware to God that if I could walk to a Taco Bell I wouldn't need a kitchen.

Oh believe me, I've tried! I once made my *** this big dinner for ******'s Day that included beef pot roast with veggies, cheddar biscuits, and this chocolate cake made from scratch that took took me all day to make. I grabbed leaves and flowers out of the garden, poured chocolate over them, refrigerated them, and then peeled the actual leaves and flowers off, so I had these chocolate leaves and flowers and used them to garnish the cake.

Anyway, the biscuits were nowhere near the same as Red Lobster's. They were kinda dry and pretty deformed looking.

That's loyalty, man. I'd rep you, but apparently I just did.

Yea, and *** will never forget that lovely ******'s Day dinner you took so much time to prepare for her. Screw the biscuits. She was with her little girl.
