May Contain: Garlic Powder

Garlic powder is dried, ground garlic. It is made by dehydrating fresh garlic cloves and then grinding them into a fine powder. This process concentrates the garlic flavor and makes it shelf-stable.

Garlic powder is used to add a garlic flavor to foods without the moisture or texture of fresh garlic. It is a common ingredient in spice blends, marinades, sauces, and dry mixes. You can find it in many savory packaged foods like seasoned meats, snacks, and frozen meals.

Garlic powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a common culinary ingredient, and when consumed in typical amounts as part of a varied diet, it is not associated with adverse health effects. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated garlic and its derivatives. While garlic has been studied for various health benefits, scientific evidence is mixed, and it is not a proven treatment for any disease.
