Default How could I possibly.........

be out of garlic?!?!?!?

I always have about 3 heads in the produce bowl.

Where'd it all go?

How can I possibly make spinach and mushroom calzones with no garlic???

I can't stoop to using garlic powder. No way, never. But I don't even
have a single clove. I used 3 cloves the other day for popcorn butter,
finishing a head, but thgere's always another one. always. i buy the a
few at a time. i use garlic a lot.

<sigh>

this is terrible.

if i go to the store for just garlic, i'll end up seeing 3 other things
that i want (ice cream, swiss cheese, a new kind of olives at the
antipasto bar), find a couple things thatare on the dollar sale so i
might as well get a few, and then i'll remember that i ran out of soy
sauce and rice wine vinegar earlier in the week. i'll spend money, no
way i'll just get one stinkin' head of garlic.

since i drove up to trader joe's and spent almost $200 stocking up, i
can't do that.

how did i POSSIBLY run out of garlic?!?!?!

Put only ONLY a $5.00 bill in your wallet and leave the credit cards and
check book at home. ;-)

That is how I manage to resist impulse/browsing purchases!

$5.00 should get you plenty of garlic...

And don't forget it next time you are stocking up! <lol>

Been there, done that. :~) That's why I keep garlic powder on hand. Not
quite the same, but it's better than nothing (although I still get heartburn
from it). :~)

Take Zantac prior to eating it. <G>
That's what I do........

The generic (Ranitidine) is affordable, especially at Wal-mart.

I cheat... <lol>
There are a few foods that I love that I know will give me heartburn. ;-)

I take two generic Zantacs (Ranitidine) about 1/2 hour or so before
eating them, or I may take them when I DO get heartburn. Goes away in
about 1 hour.

Takes care of the problem for me.......

Tomatoes, garlic, tequila, onions, a few others.

I buy the bottles of 100 and keep them in my purse.

Ophelia -- I started taking it, too, since Om told me about it.
The 75 mg doesn't do it for me -- I tried taking 150 in the am and 75 mg in
the evening and vice versa, but I just have tohave the 150 twice a day.
How about your dosage?

It takes two for me also, usually twice per day.

If I'm having a really bad attack, I'll take 3, but that's rare.

Jude,

The devil isn't opposed to garlic. In fact he probably loves roasted
garlic. You can unstring the garlic cloves from the necklace you're
wearing?

Powder, no.. but granulated garlic is fine in a pinch.
