I have heard the same from other people. They are known for greasy, fatty,
junk type food. People likely overeat there.

We have an Italian place here with two locations. My dad used to love the
place but my brother and I always got big D after eating there. Even if I
only had a salad. My brother still eats there. I won't. Angela recently
tried the place and she got big D too. Not sure what the deal is. The food
does taste good but the after effects are not so good.
