I believe it is not eating garlic, but you must wear a garlic clove in
a small pouch on a string around your neck. Now I will worry that
you will encounter a Vampire before you get the proper protection. (

Someone gave me a bracelet once, to keep me safe from Lions and Tigers
and it has really worked like a charm until now. But that has nothing
to do with food, unless it stops working and I become someone's lunch.
