Before the release of Nomad's Requiem, the examine text for garlic was 'Can be found lying around Draynor Village and Ardougne'. This text was only used for help on where to find it, but was unreasonable as garlic can be obtained in several other places, and could only be examined once the player had already found one.
Previously, if your membership had expired you used to be able to grind garlic into garlic powder, assuming you had a pestle and mortar on your tool belt, even though it became an item which could not be used in non-members worlds. This was fixed on 5 May2015.
