About

All of Garden is a homonym of the chain of Italian restaurants Olive Garden (similar to Bone Apple Tea). The phrase has been used sarcastically, mocking the similarities in the pronunciation between "All of Garden and "Olive Garden," and as a sincere mistake.

Origin

The earliest known usage of the phrase in connection to the restaurant was in a tweet [1] by @ginadistefano on December 19th, 2011 (shown below).

Spread

In 2014, Vincent "Vino" Malone launched a blog entitled "All of Garden."[2] The blog followed the author as he attempted to only eat Olive Garden during the 49-days that his "Never Ending Pasta Pass" lasted. On September 26th, 2014, he published an introduction to the blog and the challenge on YouTube. The post received more than 12,000 views in less than six years (shown below). The blog and challenge was later the subject of a legal battle between All of Garden and Olive Garden. The restaurant eventually withdrew its cease-and-desist order.



In 2015, a screenshot of a Snapchat post of a woman taking a selfie with the caption "Going to all of garden" went viral on various platforms. The earliest available posting comes from the Twitter[3] account @commonglackgiri. The post received more than 3,100 likes and 1,900 retweets (shown below, left).

The photograph soon inspired others to post similar images (example below, center).

On March 9th, Twitter[4] user @bnowaygirl tweeted a series of photographs with the caption "On my way out to all of garden." The tweet received more than 185 likes and 155 retweets in less than five years (shown below, right).
