, the user shared a photo of one of the chain restaurant’s famous unlimited breadsticks. “Guys why is there letters on my Olive Garden breadstick,” text across the screen read.

The photo showed a half-eaten breadstick with parts of a serial number printed across it as if the TikTok user didn’t discover the number until after they started eating. The video went on to receive over four million views after first being posted on November 17.

Many people were quick to turn to the comments to express their concerns or provide an explanation for why there would be various numbers and letters printed on the breadstick.

“They’re from frozen bags so the label must’ve like gotten on that one,” one commenter suggested.

Another commenter, who claimed to be someone who worked at Olive Garden, wrote, “It’s from the plastic bag they come in, and when they sit in the freezer for a while, that can happen.”

The restaurant also left a comment telling TikToker to contact their customer service department immediately.

“We are concerned to see this. Can you please send an email to *****@*****.tld with your full name and the location you went to?” the comment read.

explaining what had happened after they contacted the restaurant chain.

The post was a screenshot of an email from Olive Garden sharing that the user received a $100 gift card. “Thank you Olive Gardens,” the TikTok user wrote in an on-screen message.

The video received over 600,000 views, with many commenters explaining that the restaurant made the right decision in handling the situation.

“Now that’s good service,” one commenter wrote while another commenter agreed, writing, “Olive Garden does NOTT playyy.”

This isn’t the first time a restaurant has sparked concerns over a video on TikTok. In November, food critic Keith Lee posted a video reviewing a sushi bar, but fans had noticed that something was moving in his food.

Lee was reviewing FOB Sushi Bar in Seattle, Washington, when he applauded the “unique way” the food was being prepared. He then got into his car and began eating a box of nigiri and sashimi while he rated it on a scale from one to 10.

At the 1:50 minute mark, however, he picked up a piece of sashimi with his chopsticks, only for fans to point out what appeared to be a “worm” moving on it just seconds before he put it in his mouth.

Enough fans commented on the food, prompting the restaurant to issue a response. They posted their statement on

that read: “The movement observed in the fish may result from natural elasticity or the pressure of chopsticks when applied to its structure.”

“Rumors like this can harm small businesses, so we’re addressing it head-on. Thank you for trusting us and supporting FOB Sushi,” they captioned the post.

The sushi restaurant has since closed indefinitely after Lee posted a follow-up video revealing that another customer was hospitalized after eating FOB sushi’s food.

“I don’t believe in tearing down any business but at the same time, people’s health are on the line. If somebody’s saying they’re in the hospital and there’s something’s moving in food, I absolutely think there’s accountability that should be taken,” Lee said.
