As seen in the video above, Garofola told Us about Bachelor mansion’s food situation, the bonding between the suitors and how awkward some of those group dates can be! Case in point: on Hartsock’s season, the men performed in a Soulja Boy music video. Never forget that moment in time!

Answering the question on every viewer’s mind, he did say the food is definitely as good as it seems. “The nights of the cocktail parties are catered and it is delicious food,” he told Us.
