WIBU to eat 2 bulbs of garlic when I've got a meeting tomorrow?

[Teamumizumi]

My boss has cancelled our weekly meetings for a month now but I've asked for one tomorrow. I really hate my job. Hate it hate it hate it. Anyway, I've just eaten 2 bulbs of garlic (the whole head, not just 2 individual cloves) and I don't really care what happens TBH.

[ShatnersBassoon]

How did you do it? Like an apple, or like an orange?

[peeriebear]

With any luck you'll have silent, hot, garlicky guffs.

[Latara]

The meeting may be over quite quickly then

[whattodoo]

Depends on your reason for eating them.
If for a medical reason, YANBU.
If it's to spark a reaction from boss, then you probably are BU.

[whattodoo]

And haven't I read on MN somewhere about an unfortunate reaction to too much garlic?
Or was that because they shoved it up their bun?

[Chopstheduck]

how on earth did you eat it all?

[wannabedomesticgoddess]

Why would you want to eat that much garlic?

[Teamumizumi]

TBH the garlic has been slow roasted for an hour and is all mushy and I love the stuff. I just got carried away and ignored that voice in my head which said " You should n't be eating this!"

[BaronessBomburst]

Mmm. Roasted caramalised garlic is yummy! Not sure I could eat two bulbs though. Did you roast some peppers too?

[Teamumizumi]

No, i roasted them with fresh beetroot, olive oil and fresh thyme. 180 deg, 40 mins :)

[complexnumber]

That sounds delish!

With some pitta bread and fresh lemon slices?

[Coprolite]

YANBU.Everyone should eat more garlic.Then we'd all stink and wouldn't be able to smell each other.

[MeFour]

Now you're just making me hungry

[RubyFakeNails]

Won't you gas them all with your farts?!

I only indulge in my garlic love when I know I shall be alone the next day.

[KenLeeeeeee]

I love garlic and could eat it by the truckload, so YANBU, though YA-probably-a-bit-stinky

[squoosh]

Wow you really love garlic.

Roast will be fine as the flavour is very mellow. At first I thought you meant you were going to eat two bulbs of raw garlic. That would have been, ummm, fragrant.

[AngelWreakinHavoc]

Love garlic but never had it roasted. How is this done?

[BenandBolly]

I don't think you smell if you eat it roasted.

[Whyamihere]

I used to have a lecturer who would eat raw garlic sandwiches for breakfast, nobody would sit in the front row when he had the first few lectures.

[Coprolite]

Don't you have to chew on some parsley or something to neutralise the smell?

[Chopstheduck]

Ah roasted! Very nice, though I couldn't eat two bulbs.


Have you ever tried Delia's recipe for guinea fowl with thirty cloves of garlic? Sounds like you would enjoy that, and it is heavenly!

[SwedishEdith]

God, I wouldn't give it a second thought. I cannot smell garlic on anyone now so assume I just permanently stink of it. Sounds gorgeous what you've eaten. Have you made the guinea fowl recipe with something like 30 bulbs of garlic? Oh, I need to do it again soon now.

[squoosh]

You know what you should have had with the roast garlic? Baked camambert. Splodge the melty cheese on some crusty bread and squidge he roasted garlic on top.


Mmmm

[MrsKeithRichards]

Stick a clove up your bum, that'll take away the smell.

[Teamumizumi]

30cloves? Yay! Is the recipe online?
