help garlic!!

[LISAB]

I had a lot of garlic last night in a chinese restaurant and am paying the price today.. Does anyone know how I can get rid of the fumes before I am banished from my office!!

It might upset everyone else but just think how healthy your blood will be!! Here's a list of things to chew to neutralize the pong - cardamon seeds, husks and all are supposed to be the first line of defence ( especially effective after a curry) - if not available then parsley.

Quite repulsive, but chewing on parsley is said to work wonders.

Interesting that the odour has lingered for 4 years !

Personally I love garlic and would happily cuddle up closely to anyone who reeked of it.

I am sure LISAB is grateful for these new replies, the last 4 years must have been a lonely agony :)
