McCormick California Style Crushed Garlic (4.25 oz.)

Item Purchased: McCormick California Style Crushed Garlic (4.25 oz.)
Location Purchased: Jewel / 1224 S. Wabash Ave. / Chicago, IL
Price: $2.39 + tax

Review: I used to have a garlic press but it got lost in a move a while back. I really need to get one of those things. It's the one kitchen tool that I think everyone needs. If you don't have a pizza cutter, you can use a knife. If you don't have a can opener, you can use a knife again. However, if you don't have a garlic press, a hammer or knife will only get you so far. So, I decided to buy this small jar of crushed garlic, which the label guarantees, was made from fresh garlic.

I'm not really sure what to say when I review something like garlic. It is stinky and no vampires have attacked me yet. So I guess that's good. This fine mush of a condiment looks as if it is ready to be spread on a slice of toast, but I think I will just stick to cooking a couscous dish with it tomorrow night with my girlfriend.

Rating: 3.5 / 5

Kevin, you can crush your own garlic with a little salt and a knife. Chop the garlic a little, sprinkle salt (preferably kosher) for friction, and mash the garlic with the flat edge of the knife on the chopping board.

It's a little labor intensive, but it works.
