Protein at Olive Garden
Every chain menu in America is required to show you calories. Not one is required to print protein on the menu. So here it is — 12 Olive Garden items, using the figures Olive Garden publishes.

Ranked by protein
This operator publishes protein but not serving weights, so protein per 100 g — the figure that tells you how dense a plate is — cannot be worked out from their numbers. These are ranked by total protein, and nothing here is estimated to fill the gap.
