I get their feta, too. Much better and better for you than mass-produced high fructose laden dressing from a chain.

DITTO.

I have never had it, is it creamy or more like a "regular" Italian dressing?

No...it is not creamy. It is excellent and not too tart.

Yes, we've been buying it for the past year at Sam's. It's delicious.

I buy the Panera Asian dressing at Target. Do you know if Walmart has it too?

I bought it at Olive Garden. This is what's in it: water, soybean oil, distilled vinegar, high fructose corn syrup, salt, egg, romana cheese, dextrose etc. etc. and the high fructose corn syrup got me - we don't buy that anymore. And it's 3rd on the list. Dextrose is a sugar too, plus it has other sugars in, so it's not a very healthy dressing, tasty, yes, but not good for us, for those who care what we eat.

Agreed. Yeah, and the soybean oil, since it's not organic is totally GMO. 90% of the soy that grows in this country is. And Monsanto, who makes the chemical weed killer Roundup has the market cornered and poisoning everyone. And the HFCS is nasty as well.

If more people would just understand where their food comes from, they wouldn't buy garbage like this.

Apparently this is the only kind of salad dressing used in Olive Garden restaurants. If you requested another, they wouldn't have it.

Thanks for the tip, always loved their all you can eat salad & bread sticks!

I haven't been in over 10-15 yrs., the service got so bad, but their food was good!

Great post! I love to be shamed by someone for having a tablespoon of dressing that has a few milligrams of dextrose and HFCS in it, because that tiny amount is going to overshadow the great raw vegetables I'm eating and make the entire salad worthless. Thanks.

I had to go to Walmart today and was lucky enough to find a bottle, thanks so much for the info!
