Extremely mild flavour, slight cat-foody smell (but that dissipated quickly), sort of creamy texture. Pretty inoffensive, really. I didn't know what its intended use was, so I made something up.



First I put the mutton into a frying pan with some chopped chillis, herbs, paprika and fish sauce. And also a tiny scrap of tomato and onion sauce that I'd made the other day and had left sitting in my fridge.



Next, a couple of cans of baked beans and some rice.



Finally, cheese.



Tasted fine. The mutton doesn't have enough flavour to stand out, so it's just a vaguely meat, tomatoey, cheesy rice thing.

In Australia, "bread stick" means grissini - those thin, crunchy bread stick things that you eat with dips. Usually they're plain or very lightly flavoured.

Oh, so better than a normal hotdog then?

American style "breadsticks" aren't a thing here as far as I know. I think the closest I've encountered would be garlic bread? The kind you get from the supermarket and heat in the oven, or the kind you get from most pizza places, looks pretty similar to those Olive Garden breadsticks except that it's sliced and buttered.

In Australia, "bread stick" means grissini - those thin, crunchy bread stick things that you eat with dips. Usually they're plain or very lightly flavoured. I had always assumed that's what it meant in America as well.

It's like a combo of the two, kind of like an extremely small, lovely cheap baguette with a little garlic salt on top.

America has bread sticks as in little sad pieces of gluten that came with a cheese dip, too.

Somebody make the antithesis to the olive garden bread stick hotdog by shoving the snack bread sticks down the hot dogs pee hole.

Olive Garden's breadsticks are just rolls with garlic salt and butter spread on them. Which is good! But it's also something that pretty much anyone could do if they wanted to. My dad used to do that with store bought rolls.

Red Lobster's chedder biscuits you have to add cheese and bake yourself to get, which makes them more unique

Although I guess it's been 6 years since Olive Garden and Red Lobster split ways, so I wonder how many people won't even remember why they were together.

Nah, breadstick is just a nonspecific term that can mean a fair amount of things. Pizza places will often serve breadsticks that are just unsauced pizza dough cut into strips. A third thing breadstick can mean!
