Since I first posted I learned a few things about garlic.
What makes it special, health wise only applies to fresh garlic. It's expensive if you buy it by the head. The outside cloves are big but about a third of it is not usable. You can freeze it. So the most cost effective way that is also easy to cook with or chop is a 3 lb bag for $8 at Sams. I can just take it out of the freezer as I need it.
I buy meat in bulk and freeze it, ginger root and bread too.
