Did you know that 52% of Americans believe there’s no such thing as “too much garlic.” When I read that, I had to laugh because, over the years, I’ve complained to my husband that I thought I’d put too much garlic in something only to have him say, “NO such thing as too much garlic!”  It’s a firm belief that he passed on to two of our three daughters. The oldest and I tend to think there can be too much garlic.. but we don’t argue with the other three – we’re outnumbered after all!

National Today – America’s favorite destination to commemorate fun and quirky holidays, including National Food Days (something I’m obsessed with) — asked 1,000 Americans about their garlic preferences.  The survey was conducted on April 10, 2017 and the (delicious-sounding) results are below.

  • Only 5% of Americans have avoided smooching someone because of their garlicky breath.
