Olive Garden ‘Holiday Shutdown’ Hoax Debunked – Shocking Thanksgiving 2025 Weather Forecast Revealed

Olive Garden ‘Holiday Shutdown’ Hoax Debunked – Shocking Thanksgiving 2025 Weather Forecast Revealed

On social media and clickbait sites, claims circulated that Olive Garden would “close all 900 of its restaurants” on Thanksgiving and Christmas calcoasttimes.com. In truth, Olive Garden’s official policy has long been to close every location on those holidays – a practice explicitly noted on the chain’s FAQ page olivegarden.com. As CalCoast Times reports, the viral shutdown story is baseless: “Contrary to viral reports, Olive Garden is not closing all 900 restaurants nationwide in a two-phase shutdown” calcoasttimes.com. Industry observers emphasize this isn’t a new development, but simply the chain keeping its customary holiday hours. For example, Olive Garden’s website plainly states restaurants are closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas so employees can spend time with family olivegarden.com.

J&J Makes Bold Move: Orthopedics Spin-Off (“DePuy Synthes”) Announced – 2025 Forecast Raised

Johnson & Johnson, a healthcare conglomerate, historically consisted of consumer health, pharmaceutical, and medical technology divisions. In 2023 J&J spun off its consumer products into a new public company, Kenvue. Now it is moving a second business out: the orthopedics arm of its MedTech division. The spin-off means J&J will remain focused on pharmaceuticals and higher-growth medical devices, while DePuy Synthes inherits the hip/knee/shoulder implant and surgical tools business reuters.com jnj.com.
