    I do the same because I love garlic too … unfortunately, this past winter, I discovered there is an upper limit to this ‘one neat trick’ … an entire head of raw garlic on a piece of toast is enough to wish you could physically remove your colon from own body for a few hours.

      Raw garlic can overpower a dish. It’s a lot harder to do with cooked garlic, though (unless you burn it, at which point it’s not very pleasant in large quantities).

        Raw garlic imo is for enjoyment outside the context of a dish. Put it on your sandwich or just chomp on some cloves.
