I’ve been buying pre-pealed garlic at Walmart. It’s from Spain.

And the 39-second reason is?

I have bought Chinese garlic in the past-I won’t anymore.
That and Swai fish from SE Asia. It’s positively disgusting how they farm it.
NO food from China or Southeast Asia! I don’t need that ….
Thanks for posting it. One can’t be too careful anymore.

Do they poop on it? Taint it with LSD?

Not providing insight means everyone has to watch the video.

For everyone not watching:

#1: It’s grown in human sewer water
#2: It’s white because it’s artificially bleached with chlorine
#3: He says Chinese garlic has no roots. (I’m not so sure about this one, myself.)
#4: It may not be clearly apparent where it came from

A fond memory of childhood was when we drove through Gilroy. Almost to my relatives house in Monterrey.

Thank you! BUY AMERICAN!

They may have exotic Place-of-Origin-Names and have come through Ellis Island from different countries hidden in someone's socks, but they are here now and that makes them Our Garlic!

Easy to learn to grow your own, save enough to replant in the Fall and never have to get store bought garlic. Here are sources for seed garlic. (Normally planted in the fall!)

Jung Seeds - Garlic

Territorial Seed - Garlic (52 results!)

Rare Seed - Garlic

Johnny's Seeds - Garlic Ask the internet and you will finds lots of other sources.

Here is a link to the Gardening thread where there may be instructions on growing garlic:
