I used to work at Olive Garden. All of the pasta you're eating there is cooked, chilled and reheated before service (except in rare cases when they run out of ready pasta and have to make more on the fly). This protocol is pretty commonplace in restaurants, actually.

Okay, so former OG employee here. Olive Garden actually already reheats the pasta in store as well. Part of the prep is to cook and then chill the pasta so it can be quickly reheated and served. So uh... you're already getting some of the benefits of this eating at OG. XD

[@omggaming144]

[@GlacierMoonDragon]

Old info not the new info

[@Mehwhatevr]

I mean it makes sense. pasta and stuff can take so long to cook. not super long, but when you're offering unlimited pasta to you're customers, you need to have a large supply. and food like pasta tends to taste better after sitting in the fridge anyways.

[@Shalakor]

Never thought there'd be benefits to leftovers. Without even knowing about this science I've been in the habit lately of making large batches of pasta with the remainder to be used later. Might want to make pasta completely ahead of time now. Besides, while cold pasta with sauce isn't too great, some cold angle hair noodles by themselves are delicious, particularly if you added a bit of salt and olive oil to the water.

[@mustwereallydothis]

@semilianooo I don't think that weird at all. I was thinking more along the lines of cold pasta salads. I find that they usually have a strange, almost metallic taste. Bolagnase sauce would easily drown that flavor out. Even if someone does enjoy the flavor of cold pasta salads, that doesn't mean they're "weird." It just means they have different tastes than I do.

[@Mr.Helper.]

Pasta salad is good

[@firewindentertainment]

Fun fact for people who aren't aware: most chain restaurants like Olive Garden and Corner Bakery actually already do this to their pasta. It is generally prepped in large quantities prior to lunch and dinner rushes and then stored chilled for longevity, then reheated before it is served. So they are actually already serving you healthier to eat pasta!

[@ChosenGemInEye]

I worked in several food places esp restaurants and can say that is true. Either made the night before or several hours before big rushes like lunch, dinner or even special events. I worked line cook and prep cook at the same time, we'd warm up the food before opening the restaurant and prepare little things specifically for breakfast for the deli.

Who got us kicked out because he ate beyond their unlisted limit. And he and the manager argued and got us tossed out. He had his dad (a lawyer) OFFICALLY mail the corporate office from his office, got an executive payment card (AKA anything he and 1 guest orders is on the house for life) as well as the bill (for over a dozen people) refunded and a handwritten apology from the manager (who was immediately fired) and the owner of that location.

Food theory idea: Is taste objective and whether you like it subjective, or does everyone taste different foods differently? AKA Does everyone taste the same thing when they're eating the same food, and just have different opinions, or do they taste different things and have either different or the same opinion.

[@vibaj16]

definitions at that level are not really concrete, but the best way to understand it is that we all taste the same things, but like different ones. What you taste and whether you like it in a way is really the same thing. We use the same mechanisms to distinguish tastes, but our brains interpret them differently. There isn't really even a shuch thing as taste: you like it to some degree, and your brain makes up different ways of liking things for different tastes

[@sahasrakandukuri1859]

The reason some people taste some things differently is genetic. I’m not sure if this is the sole reason, but it is an important one.

[@emilyvalentine4565]

I mean objectively speaking not everybody does, because some of those with synesthesia may have their sense of taste for a particular food register differently than people who don't have it. Plus any people who've lost their sense of taste, but if you're only looking by default at those who have a functioning sense of taste then uk

[@iffeetaffee5458]

It is mostly subjective, however some people with different genes taste foods differently. For example, someone who has the OR26A gene will say that cilantro tastes like soap, because the OR26A gene makes you taste foods like cilantro slightly different.
