Even my granulated garlic darkens from "cooking" in the cabinet.) I'm not going to get into a debate over which side of the Cordillera produces a superior product, because I've had everything from swill gutrot to outstanding on both sides, and a multitude of price points. But if you must, you can currently get a 1.5L box of Gato Blanco at Jumbo for about US$5. Enjoy!
