Bicycle riding in Alaska in the winter seems a bit nutty. My brother after the Frosty Bottom 50 mile bike ride. I think he has snot sickles.

Couple questions. Is there really no nutritional value in these snacks? Would it be a crime to include some vitamin A, C, or D?

Should you love the Olive Garden? Absolutely you should. Yes it is a National chain restaurant found in many of the states across the US- and while many cry local- it is good. Now it is not the Latin King or Baratta's. So stop by for salad, bread sticks, and traditional Italian grub.
