Hi Phaed! Love your website! Thank you!
I am looking for a few bread recipes...if you can find any of the 3 below I will be
forever grateful:
Arby's Market Fresh Sandwich - the bread they use on the Turkey and Swiss, it's a
whole wheat
Bravo Cucina Italiana - their house table bread, it's rosemary...and if you care to
figure out the dipping oil recipe it's amazing too!
Cheesecake Factory - their house table bread, the dark one, I believe its a really
dark wheat bread
Thanks for your help :)

Hi Jenni,
Note that I only do one request per e-mail.
There are discussions and recipes regarding the bread used for Arby's Market Fresh
Sandwiches on these sites:
This one says that it's the wheat berry bread made by Rotella's Italian Bakery:
mspimama.com
These sites give recipes that were created for the home baker, purportedly with
the help of the person who developed the Arby's Market Fresh Sandwich Bread for Arby's.
The Fresh Loaf
This one has the most detailed recipe:
Lifamilies.com
The actual commercial recipe, whether from Rotella's or Arby's itself, is not available.
Even if it were, it would probably be unusable in the home kitchen.

Hi Jenni,
I had no luck at all with the Bravo Cucina Italiana bread, but these sites have recipes
for the Cheesecake Factory bread:

Subject: Coca Cola Cake recipe!!!
Good Afternoon.
I am visiting in a different state than my own. I left my CookBook;
that has a recipe for Coca-Cola cake, that I am wanting to bake as
a surprise for my husband. He had a piece at Cracker Barrel earlier
this week & he really enjoyed it.
Thanking you in advance.
Hello Pat,
There are probably a dozen recipes, each different, called "coca-cola cake".
There is a copycat recipe for Cracker Barrel's version here:

Subject: Dad's Oatmeal cookies
Hello...
My name is Michele and I grew up in Catonsville, Md...where I had Dad's Oatmeal
Cookies all through my childhood and we purchased them at lunchtime in high school
(as my mother did also when she was a teenager) This recipe you have for Dad's
Oatmeal Cookies does not taste like what I remember...way too spicy and just does
not have the same unique taste and texture of Dad's Oatmeal Cookies.
Hi Michele,
Well, it may not match your memory of the cookies, but it's all that I can find.
The actual recipe from the company that made the cookies is not available, and
even if it were, it would be a commercial factory recipe using commercial ingredients
in huge quantities to make industrial sized batches of cookies. You couldn't use
it in your kitchen.
The recipe on my site
is a copycat, which means that someone tried to make a home
recipe that tastes similar to the Dad's product and the given recipe was as close
as they could get.
Perhaps, since you have a good memory of how Dad's oatmeal cookies taste, then you
can experiment and come up with a better copycat recipe. If you do, please send it
to me so that I can make it available to my readers.
Phaed
