If I never stopped for the knots I would weigh less and feel better, but I wouldn’t have any knots. Even worse, I wouldn’t have any garlic.
You can buy a bulb of garlic in a grocery store for about 50 cents, and add it to meat and vegetable dishes. It doesn’t have to come attached to garlic bread, and it’s not the garlic that is loaded with calories.
Garlic powder is even easier, and has the advantage that you can put it on stuff that you didn’t make at home if desired without it having that bitey raw-garlic taste.
I’m a big fan of using actual garlic bulbs, but if you get more utility from “dried from a shaker” stuff, try the new Penzey’s version. It’s far superior to standard garlic powder.
I’m a big Penzey’s fan (for one thing, it seems to be the only place I can get ground celery seed), but I cook nearly everything I make myself—I use garlic powder when it’s texturally important but otherwise mince my own cloves of the stuff.
I don’t think Penzey’s exists here in Canada, but my favorite store is Bulk Barn. Pretty sure they have dried garlic flakes. They also have about a dozen kinds of chocolate chips, and incredibly cheap beans and lentils. And pure MSG in powder form...I always laugh.
I wasn’t cooking at the time, and I certainly wouldn’t have any garlic right there and then. However, I will admit I’ve found other ways to get my garlic needs met including actual garlic bulbs, although you won’t find them here that cheap.
