Here's What Really Makes Olive Garden's Salad So Delicious

Ever wonder why people flock to Olive Garden just for an appetizer dish? It’s because the salads are just that good! From fresh ingredients and crunchy croutons to salt and neverending cheese, there’s several reasons why Olive Garden’s salad is so irresistible.

Across the board, the most important component in a good salad has got to be the freshness of the ingredients that go into it. The lettuce, greens, and produce have to be high quality, especially since you’re eating most of it raw. And part of what makes Olive Garden’s salad so good that its recipe has been replicated all over the internet, is that it is full of fresh ingredients.

While Olive Garden workers have confessed that some menu items and ingredients are not fresh, and instead come to the store frozen or prepared, this is not the case with the chain’s signature house salad. An Olive Garden line cook confirmed on Reddit that all the toppings for the salad come to the restaurant fresh and are prepared in-house. And those fresh ingredients are kept in tip-top shape, because Olive Garden is said to take food safety and quality very seriously. Another Olive Garden employee on Reddit said that food is, quote, “checked intensely every hour between the lunch and dinner shift.”

They added that proper food temperatures and cross contamination protocols are in place.
