People Do It All The Time
Conversation between my younger son, D-, and me while I was preparing a marinade for steak fajitas last night:
"Is that garlic you're peeling?"
"Yes, it's part of the marinade."
"You use it raw?"
"Sure. Just mince it up and put it in there."
"Can you eat those cloves raw?"
"Sure."
"Can I try one?"
"Here you go... rock on."
Needless to say I don't have the skill with words to describe just how hilarious his ensuing peeling, biting, and chewing of one raw clove of garlic was. I did get my laugh for the day. Those of you who've ever tried eating a large chunk of raw garlic know what I'm talking about.
But there's probably a daddy voodoo doll with garlic soaked pins sticking in it somewhere up in his room.
