Look I know this is a bit disgusting but I really don't feel satisfied with the amount of garlic I've put into a dish until it feels like it's been suffused into my very flesh. I must feel the spirit of the garlic coursing through my veins. And for that I am happy I put half a head into yesterday's pasta dish. Still on those garlic vibes. Satisfying.

Nah I feel you, I have a really hard time tasting those subtle tastes, I like them almost overpowering. Vanilla essence, peppermint, most spices, garlic, I load all of them up

I load up the vanilla too, always add another tsp to the recipe

I’ve had reflux for a couple of months now and fuck me if I don’t miss garlic with every fibre of my being. It’s so. Damn. Good.

RIP. I'm very lucky garlic never affected me that much (it was more chilli and tomato). Fodmap sufferers have it the worst. Life without garlic and onion is... no life at all...
