After a popular Italian restaurant chain dished out an online response to a curious diner about its new unlimited pasta pass, politically-minded social media users, including those at the top of the food chain, are taking a stand.

Olive Garden took to X on Wednesday to promote its new deal, which offers customers the chance purchase a "Never Ending Pasta Pass" for $100 plus tax, giving the first 10,000 people to purchase their pass 13 weeks of unlimited pasta.

A user posed a question to the iconic American restaurant chain, asking whether they could purchase the unlimited pasta pass and share it with their family.

"No. The Never-Ending Pasta Pass is only for use by the Passholder whose name is printed on the Pass," Olive Garden replied. "Passes are personalized and non-transferable."

"Passholders must present a valid photo I.D. along with the Pass at the time of ordering," the chain instructed from its X account.

Immediately, the political right seized the the opportunity to prove a point — that Olive Garden appears more strict about its unlimited pasta promotion than Democrat-run states are about voting. The timely post comes as Trump continues to push for what would be a signature legislative victory — the SAVE Act — which, if passed, would require photo identification to vote. It has faced fierce pushback from the left-wing, who have argued against requiring proof of identity to cast a ballot in elections.

"Olive Garden takes their Pasta Pass security more seriously than Democrats take election security," White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson told Fox News Digital. "It’s sad but true."

"The SAVE America Act is a commonsense police, supported by the vast majority of Americans, that will secure our elections for generations to come. The only people opposed seem to be Democrats in Congress… I wonder why?" she added.

The social media post quickly caused an online feeding frenzy.

"PUT OLIVE GARDEN IN CHARGE OF OUR ELECTIONS!!!" one popular X account quipped.

"I hope you understand that this is extremely discriminatory towards minorities and married women," one user said, parroting talking points that the political left has used in opposition of the SAVE Act.

Another user also mockingly used the common parlance of the political left in response to Olive Garden's strict policy.

"I’m sorry, but this sounds incredibly racist to me, a requirement ID and some sort of proof of being a passholder will negatively affect marginalized communities ability to access Olive Garden," wrote the sarcastic user. "Do better Olive Garden."

"Are you saying that if photo ID is not presented, it could lead to cheating the system?" another social media user asked.

"Good grief, Olive Garden is more secure than our elections," said yet another.

Since Republicans in the House of Representatives passed the SAVE Act in February, the bill has faced major obstruction by Democrats in the Senate, as the conservative lawmakers don't have the 60 votes required to overcome a filibuster.

Earlier this week, SAVE Act language was attached to a State Department appropriations bill in a creative attempt to pass the law.
