What it is

Granulated garlic is a spice made from dried garlic cloves that have been ground into a coarse, sand-like texture. It is produced by dehydrating fresh garlic and then milling it, concentrating its flavor. This process removes most of the moisture, making it shelf-stable.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add granulated garlic primarily for its distinctive pungent and savory flavor. It is a versatile seasoning used in a wide range of processed foods, including sausages, hotdogs, pasta dishes, ketchup, mustard, and various BBQ and cheese sauces, to enhance taste.

Health notes

Granulated garlic is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. At typical dietary intake levels, it is not associated with adverse health effects for most individuals. As a common food ingredient rather than a food additive, it is not typically subject to specific evaluations by bodies like JECFA or EFSA for an acceptable daily intake (ADI). There are no notable controversies regarding its safety as a food ingredient.

Allergen info

Granulated garlic is not considered one of the nine major food allergens identified by the FDA, nor does it contain gluten.
