It’s punchy, it’s polarising, and it makes everything better (except your breath). In this episode of She’s Always on About Food…, we take a deep-dive into the magical, myth-filled world of garlic. From vampire repellent to ancient medicine, sacred ingredient to flavour bomb — garlic has been both loved and feared for centuries. We’ll trace its journey across the globe, explore how different cultures use it (yes, even Indian tadkas), and question why some people still avoid it like, well… the plague. It’s not just seasoning — it’s identity.
Whether you roast it, smash it, or sneak it into everything — this one’s for the garlic lovers. 🧄✨

Comfort, culture, chemistry, cravings—why does food rule our lives? In this opener we unpack the emotions, memories, and downright biology behind our obsession, hopping from Sunday roasts to kimchi jars (with a dash of Indian tadka) and leaving you hungry for more.
