“Another article of cuisine that offends the bowels of unused Britons is garlic. Not uncommonly in southern climes an egg with a shell on is the only procurable animal food without garlic in it. Flatulence and looseness are the frequent results.”

~ Dr. T. K. Chambers, A Manuel of Diet In Health and Disease (1875)
