A Lot of Food, or a lot of money. that is the question

     I love food. Its such a wonderful thing. I could eat it at anytime in a day. I'd much rather have food than rocks. Yet i can find and endless number of rocks, is my food endless? Usually not. However, some places offer that "endless, bottomless, and infinite," but is it ever true outside of a buffet? Olive Garden offers a bottomless "pasta, soup, salad, and breadsticks" deal, so I tried it. Here is what happened.

     So I walked in, got seated and ordered a nice bottomless pasta. It was a little extra from what I would see everything else being priced at, but who cares? I get bottomless food! Or so I thought. My first dish comes, it's a plate that holds a little less than the normal serving amount, but it's bottomless so I still don't fret. I eat it and the waiter comes over and offers me a second bowl. Of course I say yes, that's why I ordered it. When it comes out it's noticeably smaller, possibly a kids meal size portion. This is when I began to realize something was wrong. I ate this, quite quickly because of how small it was. They next offered us the check, what? Before anyone realized it, it was too late for having another round of pasta. Our pasta which we paid extra for this "bottomless" supply of, ended up being a big setup for just seconds.

     So what's the big deal OG? "It's just business," -most likely response. This strategy worked because of their well used weasel words. They used big words that ultimately mean "never-ending" to explain the "great deal" they have for their food. Yet no matter how many times you had the bring you food it would never be infinite because their backroom can only hold so much. They also created it as you feel like its unlimited because they ask if you want seconds, yet that's the only time they ask you for more.
