From Mr R. P. Warner
Sir: I wonder whether any of your readers have noticed the recent decline in the flavour strength of garlic sold by our supermarkets. It is some while since I last visited France, but lingering still is that evocative taste of garlic.
What has happened? Have the mega-grocers grown an English EU version of garlic: palely halfhearted compared with that essential taste of Europe?
Yours faithfully,
R. P. WARNER
