Angry Garlic

2 Days ago I mad some Alfredo that called for minced garlic. I minced that garlic up good. So good in fact that two days later I'm still smelling garlic constantly. If I push my nose around I can really smell it. I think some of the garlic stink molecules got stuck in my sinus passages.

This smell is driving me nuts arg! How much longer will this last?

My Son has an ear infection and I have been putting minced garlic and olive oil in his ears for three days. He stinks, the house stinks and I stink, so I can relate to what your going through.

I think lemon kills the garlic smell. Good luck!

If I had garlic farts to top this off with that would be great. I bet I could clear all vampires in a 10 mile radius.

Did you give Coffee beans or grounds a try? Perfume counters do it so your nose can tell the difference between the different scents.

Good luck with that and the farts!

I just sprayed perfume up my nose and stuck a coffee bean in each nostril. All of these home remedies are terrible. My eyes are watering, my nose is burning, I'm pretty sure I'm starting to lose my sense of smell.
