Garlic
Good nutritional profile
Raw garlic cloves.
Garlic is a bulb of the onion family, used raw or cooked in small amounts to flavor food. Per 100 g it is rich in vitamin B6, manganese and vitamin C, but one clove weighs only about 3 g, so a typical 6 g serving of two cloves adds under 10 kcal and very little of any nutrient. Its sharp smell comes from allicin, which forms when the cloves are crushed or chopped.
