It's a good thing I carry mints and packs of gum with me. Of course, the only way to really get rid of garlic breath is to brush and use mouthwash, and even then it'll still leave an aftertaste. It's some powerful stuff!

We got 6 full milk crates of garlic (maybe 1500 cloves) donated to us at the homeless shelter kitchen I work at after a garlic festival in a nearby town. Which was great news for me because I use tons of roasted garlic in recipes. It's got a much more subtle flavour than regular garlic. And it's easy as hell to make too.
- Preheat an oven to 450 F
- Slice the tops off of your cloves of garlic and place them on squares of foil.
- Drizzle the garlic with olive oil and wrap them in the foil.
- stick them in the oven for 45 minutes of until fairly tender.
- let the garlic cool and then squeeze out the garlic, mush it into a paste with a fork and you're done.
You can use a teaspoon of the stuff whenever garlic is called for, I usually use a little more since I love the stuff, and I haven't been attacked by a vampire yet.
