The Store-Bought Bread Sticks That Are An Olive Garden Copycat - The Takeout

Despite its semi-bland interior and imitation of authentic Italian cuisine, the Olive Garden experience continues to delight us, and rightly so. We'll wait in those long lines, sit at those sticky booths, and ignore the fact that the Tour Of Italy dish isn't even fully Italian, just for a mere glimpse at the never-ending pasta bowl and those unlimited breadsticks. Ah, yes, even the words can send a crowd into a frenzy -- Olive Garden breadsticks. Though it's been the source of jokes over the years, with people claiming to shove dozens of breadsticks into their purses, Olive Garden's breadsticks are the chain's highest-rated appetizer.

While the craving for breadsticks never stops, we can't have Olive Garden on speed dial at all times of the day and night. So, people have turned to Walmart's Great Value Garlic Bread Sticks as a convincing alternative. Olive Garden's breadstick phenomenon began the moment it opened its doors in 1982. These days, the chain restaurant goes through about 529 million breadsticks a year, with some individual locations serving more than 2000 breadsticks per night. So, how well do Walmart's breadsticks measure up? According to the internet, it's pretty damn close.
