Yep, brush teeth and tongue and use Listerine and eat some mint and suck on lemon.



lol unlucky! reminds me of when my uncle made a type of meatloaf, he followed to the recipe and chucked in a whole bulb of garlic in because he thought the same as you and the recipe said to put 1 clove of garlic in :P.

His breath was terrible for about 3 days., there is nout you can do other than chewing gum and brushing your teeth or swilling ur mouth out with mouthwash, it will only mask the smell so much but the garlic will still end up coming through :>

Even herbs can only do so much, it wont completetly mask the smell, as garlic is VERY powerful stuff hehe



Oops!, I made that mistake years ago. You just have to live with it for a few days, Chewing parsely or coffee beans or extra strong mints will help. But - I bet you don't do it again?



Drink lemonade, or eat a lemon or chew on a mint leaf or parsley or any other strong flavored herb.



Brush, mouthwash...but hey Garlic in those doses are actually good for you...you may stink for now, but you'll be healthier

It's good for you. Stuff the others, tell them their breath stinks anyway, regardless.



Chewy parsley



Brush your teeth, use mouth wash, chew mints, gum=0
