Talk:Garlic

message: the Adverse effects and toxicology section mentions milk to reduce bad breath if consumed  mixed with the garlic. 
perhaps the article could mention that mixing garlic with honey reduces or eliminates the hotness of its flavor when consumed together. one more reason for including a mention of honey and garlic combined as there are some "folk medicine" style mixtures (a jar of honey filled with bulbs of onion) available in the market. 
at least i think, i have seen that some years ago. i got no sources for this, its just that it might be a point worth to look after.

thread_title:  Animal consumption? 

message: The leaves of garlic and the other leeks are identical except for size, and they don't look as much like spears as the leaves of gladiolus do -- which isn't much.
However, all I have to back up this assertion is the plants themselves, which is about as primary as research can get.
