Garlic flag - what do you do against it?
Garlic flag - what can you do about it and what really helps?
My friend was dead last week! I opened the door to greet him and a nausea came over me - he stunk of garlic and so bad that it made us sick. After I had calmed down again and threatened to shoot the cook with garlic, to sue the restaurant owner, "rescue attempts" were announced.
What works against an incredible garlic flag?
I put down a pint of WARM MILK and ordered: "Drink this ?! Milk generally binds such nasty smells - even the squeezing out of lemon slices can help, so he also got half a plate of CITRONS in front of his nose.
Finally, I raced to my balcony and mowed a good deal of my PETERSILIE and set it before him to chew.
Generally enough to get a garlic flag under control. Not so with my friend. He pouted so much that I figured my flowers would immediately hang their heads when he breathe them. And I had planned a drive of several hours with him!
After hissing in the kitchen and cursing like an Italian mom, taking the car key from him and claiming he could ride in the trunk, if ever, I remembered an age-old trick that belongs to the daily grooming of my mother's Iranian partner, - that? REMOVE TONGUE ?.
Not only does this man brush his teeth very fast in the morning, he also brushes his tongue with a soft toothbrush - only with water.
Earlier, one pulled off the tongue with a leather strap, he explained to me, thereby the coating on the tongue is cleaned and unpleasant odors disappear quite quickly.
So I sent my friend to the bathroom and showed him how to do it with his tongue, starting from the middle of the tongue and stroking the pad forward to the tip of the tongue.
Now the tongue is a very sensitive muscle and the disagreeable side of it is that it tickles. The stronger you press, the easier it is to develop a gag, but you can learn to suppress that feeling by practicing the tongue daily.
Now my friend's face changed a little the color under the torture, the result was an intoxicating - he was allowed to ride in the passenger seat.
Bad breath develops between the teeth and in so far one can prevent such Stinkattacken by one after such a meal the teeth immediately thoroughly cleans and also the interdental spaces thoroughly cleans.
With such quantities of garlic, parsley, lemon and milk are actually immediate measures, - a day later you are a little more helpless with this stink attack, it works - but slower.
Tear off the tongue, however, is a damn good trick to counteract such Miefattacken. However, - the first few times it is uncomfortable. And in general, I would say that garlic just does not have to be, not even at Spaghetti Aglio & Olio!
