A LOT of Americans are going to be in SHOCK if they ever travel to Italy, and find out the restaurants there don't give you unlimited salad, unlimited breadsticks, and bottomless pasta for $8.99.

According to a new survey by Public Policy Polling, 39% of Americans say they consider OLIVE GARDEN to be, "a quality source of authentic ethnic food."  44% say it's NOT authentic ethnic food. 17% weren't sure.

The survey also found 30% of Americans have a negative opinion of vegans, 30% would not be willing to pay more at restaurants if it meant the employees could have health insurance, and 79% say they do NOT believe they're obese.
