“I see recipes calling for one clove of garlic. One clove of garlic is not enough for any recipe unless it’s a recipe for, ‘how to cook one clove of garlic’ – even in this case use two.” Unknown

There are many miracles in the world to be celebrated and, for me, garlic is the most deserving."

Leo Buscaglia (1924-1998)

There are five elements: earth, air, fire, water and garlic.” Louis Diat

Rest in peace, garlic. You will be minced.
