I doubt red lobster seafood is fresh (lobster are from the tank, the rest not so much). It’s frozen. (They’d have to fly it in special, for most of their locations. Which. Is not cheap.)
Their soups… I dunno 50/50 on them being warmed out of giant bags made in some distribution hub.
Their biscuits are made from a dry mix (probably identical to bisquick)
I was speaking to OG’s soups (which are made fresh- during prep that morning.) are pretty freaking cheap to make- especially since they probably use all the not-quite as fresh ingredients left over from the previous night; and stocks made from bits and pieces that would otherwise be tossed (like chicken carcass or skins/peels from carrots and onions).
Their biscuits are made from a dry mix (probably identical to bisquick)
Where an I obtain massive quantities of this dry mix?
Asking for a friend.
They sell it at grocery stores. They even have a gluten free version that my wife actually prefers to the regular.
Of course, then I have to make it myself...

Are we talking Bisquick or delicious Red Lobster Cheddar Biscuits here? Because there's a difference.
That's 12 boxes of mix, which each make 10 biscuits. That's over 3 kilograms of biscuit mix, which makes 120 biscuits, like 10 kilos of biscuits!
I stand by my previous statement.

That's what I was taking about. I was taking about darden getting fresh produce. They're who own olive garden. They just also used to own red lobster but got rid of it.
There’s levels of freshness, so to speak.
Soups usually get things that are not-as-fresh because they get simmered all day anyway- no one is gonna notice if the the carrots were getting flacid or if the protein is dried out from being cooked and not served.
They make the soup fresh daily- just in the morning. and they keep it hot so as to get it out quickly. The ingredients they use, though “fresh” are not the freshest in their pantry, if that makes sense. It’s the left over trimmings that get chopped up so as to hide it (this is actually a good thing. It reduces waste.)
