IS GARLIC A SPICE? MOST PEOPLE I'VE TALKED TO SAY IT'S NOT. SOME PEOPLE
SAY IT IS. WHAT DOES THE IDM LIST THINK ABOUT IT? HERE'S SOME FACTS TO
BASE YOUR RESPONSES ON:
1) NEITHER DICTIONARY.COM NOR BRITTANICA REFER TO GARLIC AS A SPICE, BUT
RATHER AS A "SEASONING" OR "CULINARY HERB".
2) A SPICE, BY DEFINITION, IS:
"a. Any of various pungent, aromatic plant substances, such as cinnamon
or nutmeg, used to flavor foods or beverages."
"b. Something that adds zest or flavor."
SO WHICH IS IT? SPICE OR NOT SPICE? MY VOTE IS FOR "NOT A SPICE". AND
I'M TIRED OF GARLIC RIPPING OFF AUTECHRE'S STYLE.
