Carrabba's Bread Dipping Spice

Carrabba's is one of our favorite restaurants in Colorado. The first time we went, Adam was upset because he thought someone had smoked at our table and the bussers had not cleared the dish that had ashes on it. Then the server came and put olive oil in the "ashes" - the look on Adam's face was priceless. He was mortified. Now he loves this stuff and has been known to indulge a little too much in it. :)
