Garlic is sold in 3 categories :
Category 1 is a good quality garlic, intact, healthy, clean, with tight cloves.
Category 2 is a merchantable garlic with certain allowable defects. This garlic is ideal for «zero waste» ranges or for industrial processing.
Industrial Category is a garlic intended for processing or aroma extraction.
