My work's main office is in NY, so that kind of thing comes up when we have to talk to them.

It's about the only healthy thing on the menu!
My wife wanted to hit Olive Garden a few weeks back. After Googling the nutritional content of the food, I ordered the most boring fish ever. Many of their meals may as well be fried fat, covered with fat, served on a bed of fat.
Salad and breadsticks is probably one of the best choices!

I completely agree that people should do what works for them. Though I look at things more on a weekly level vs daily and even agree with "cheat" meals, for me what works is cutting out some of my worst food choices except for on a very occasional basis.
And more than a few of their menu choices have 250-300% of the normal recommended fat goals for a person my size. I'm willing to flex on macros and such, but I've found much healthier choices that are just as tasty.

The calorie counts for many/most dishes in restaurants I've been to tend to be quite high. The numbers simply won't work out if I were to eat a full entree with apps there for lunch everyday (for example), so instead I eat where I want but less often, or don't consume the entire dish in one sitting, as mentioned in the OP. Please note that you were the one that responded to another poster stating it was bad to eat there if you were attempting to lose weight. I'm just clarifying that's not necessarily the case!

I'm getting the feeling that the OP is an industry plant placed in this forum to make members forum fall off their "regimented diet" wagon.
He is funny though.
Funny or not, you cannot succeed to pass "Olive Garden" as food to me cerialdude...
Olive Garden is garbage, merely a rung above golden corral...0 -
Olive Garden bread sticks? Meh. Logan's Roadhouse rolls? Heaven on earth. I could make a meal out out of them.0

I'm getting the impression that these breadsticks are the American version of Sizzler's cheesy toast. Part food crack, part carb.0
