I recently joined Sam's Club and saw restaurant sized jugs of peeled
whole garlic cloves for sale. How do they peel them on that scale?? I
wondered how fresh or flavorful they remain and for how long?

What can I say... I like to bang the flat blade of my knife on a clove
and peel each one as I use it. It only takes a second and I feel
virtuous, lol.
