As a food ingredient, garlic can not only improve the taste and freshness of other food ingredients in daily food, but also contain 17 amino acids, 8 of which are necessary for us. It is also recorded in some books, which can be used to exorcise ghosts, ward off evil spirits and subdue zombies. This is especially frequent in some Hong Kong dramas.

Garlic is called "the ganoderma lucidum of the poor", and it certainly deserves its name.
