With potato chips, donuts and beef jerky, a number of snack food brands have assembled special food bouquets for sharing on Valentine's Day as an alternative to a traditional bunch of flowers—and this year, Olive Garden is participating by offering up its very own breadstick bouquets.
Putting together a savory breadstick bouquet from the Italian food chain requires some effort yet it will only make the gesture all the more thoughtful on Valentine's Day. Those who wish to share the gift of carbs are able to order breadsticks to go from Olive Garden and bundle the bouquet with a fun wrapping paper with sayings like "We belong together like spaghetti and meatballs," or "My love for you is never ending," which references Olive Garden's Never Ending Pasta options.
