I thought it was interesting that the article actually mentioned a
bitter taste for one of them... but I think Daniel tasted the garlic
raw, not cooked. Considering you and your husband's seasoning
restrictions, I'm not surprised he's ultra sensitive to garlic. Heck
there are people who don't like garlic at all (probably another one of
those weird gene things like cilantro) and some of them are Italian,
so you know they don't skimp when it comes to other seasonings.
