Spicecat sent me an article from the Toronto Star business section today about garlic speculation in China. The price has skyrocketed dut to a combination of poor supply and fears about H1N1. There is even garlic hoarding happening. Imagine that.

A garlic shortage would be a disaster! “H” is still laughing over my comment that the pumpkin shortage is because the pirates are stopping the shipments from China. He has had more fun telling people that at his store and laughing his head off because they believe him. I still have stacks of rice because of the last rumor of a rice shortage – which reminds me, I need to make a run of food and winter stuff to the rescue mission…..good place for surplus rice.
Fortunately, garlic is easy to grow in one’s garden.
