Have you noticed that garlic bulbs look different?

Asked by RedDeerGuy1 (24986points) July 6th, 2024

Years ago I noticed that garlic bulbs look freeky.

Or are the garlic bulbs sliced differently?

Different from . . . light bulbs?

What’s freeky with a double-e?

Different from older garlic. The new garlic looks like a bees honey comb.

I don’t rember garlic looking like that 10 years ago.

Freeky is weird.

Double “E” is Canadian spelling.

If the roots are cutoff clean, it was imported from China, where the government require no roots (I think it because of pests in roots and soil).

Maybe drop a picture of what you mean?

I’ve been harvesting thousands of garlic bulbs for 15 years and I swear they look exactly the same.

(OMG no freeky is a freAky misspelling!)

@Smashley I am on my smartphone. So it is hard to send a link. I think that it is how one cuts the garlic? Horizontal or vertical? One looks like a bunch of alien eggs. While the other way is individual squashed garlic bulbs.
