- A spokesperson for the Olive Garden parent company, Darden Restaurants, denied that it sent a cease-and-desist letter to a Seinfeld parody account on Friday.
- The apparently fake letter demanded that the account @Seinfeld2000 remove an earlier tweet that said, “respect to Olive Garden for no longer selling AR-15s at all their locations.”
- It asserts: “Olive Garden has spent years building its reputation as a family friendly restaurant that is safe for all patrons to dine in,” and accuses the parody account of “spreading false, destructive and defamatory rumors.”
- “Our legal team has not been in contact with this individual or sent them the message that was posted,” a Darden Restaurants spokesperson told Business Insider in an email on Friday.
