As a general rule, any kind of fruit or veggie is much better for you raw.

Eat some fresh parsley after eating garlic, rub lemon juice on your hands after touching it, and you can drink some lemon juice in cold water, lemon always helps cut through the garlic odor.

it depends on the guy; diet can affect the taste. Things like wheatgerm and pineapple juice make it sweeter, things like processed meat (salami, pepperoni) garlic and onion can make it more sour.

Garlic, as one of the answerers already said, is a natural antibiotic when eaten raw. However, my suggestion is that it could be dangerous to let an ear infection go without treatment because it can get so bad that it can lead to eventual hearing loss; this happened to someone I knew years ago. Call a doctor, and if it is finances that keep you from going, explain it to them. There are public health clinics that you may be able to go to, but be prepared for paperwork. Although I am a natural/alternative medicine advocate, I still feel there are times when a visit to the doctor is necessary, (or a homeopathic practitioner if you are fortunate enough to live near one). Please don't take a chance with your hearing, call around if it is financial and hopefully you will be able to find a doctor who is willing to work with you with the cost of the visit/antibiotic. I hope all goes well for you!

Sure, and saliva, whatever else. Hair is the most noticable. Plus, a lot of cooks don't wear gloves while making your food. I've had hairs, fingernail, a pebble, and a band aid in my food different times during my life. I've refused food because the person making it was gloveless and wiping snot on her hands while wrapping the food. I've had waiters sneeze directly at the food. All very yucky, makes me want to stay home and cook for myself!

I read recently a similar description from someone who said that it all cleared up after his wife started serving them thin sliced onions with a little salad vinegar 2-3 times a week and adding fresh garlic to soups and stews.  This might sound a little strange until you consider that the onions, garlic and vinegar are all naturally anti-biotic.  In World War I and II military doctors used garlic juice as an anti-biotic (with terrific results) when other anti-biotics were not available.  They knew to do this from study of history.  It has been used thusly for centuries.\n\n"Let food be your medicine and let medicine be your food."\n---Hippocrates 400 BC

Beans and other legumes (plus onions and cabbage) contain a type of sugar called oligosaccharides, which we can't digest.  The sugars are instead eaten by bacteria in the large intestines, which in turn release gas.\n\nIt really isn't the gas that smells though - that is caused by trace amounts of other chemicals that never leave the gut.  Onions and garlic are prime offenders in this part of the equation.

Celery is good healthy stuff. Good to eat raw and to cook with.

It's safe to eat now.  There were some people who got sick from eating a certain brand of spinach and they took that certain spinach off the shelves, but that is definitely old news and you can eat spinach again.

Do you mean "Are raw vegetables healthier than cooked vegetables"?\n\nSome vitamins can be lost when the veggies are cooked.
