I have a sister in law that says that garlic makes her sick, but it must
depend on who is preparing the food because I had some of the stuffed
mushroom caps she makes for her Christmas party every year. They are loaded
with garlic.

Garlic is a very versatile little bulb. It's flavour and effect changes
with the way it is prepared. I find that raw garlic tends to give me heart
burn, but I have no problem with it when it is cooked.
