Container is not airtight.
The product is good but the container is useless. As soon as you open the jar it starts to spoil as it is not air tight. If you buy it make sure that you transfer the granules into a screw top jar or air tight plastic container, or alt into a tiny plastic bag immediately..
Solution
Store the jar in the freezer. Job done. No clumping of contents! (Works with the Tesco onion granules too.)
Garlic powder?
The garlic granules are very fine closer to powder.
Tip
Buy the schwartz garlic.but keep the containter.once its gone,refill it with this stuff,its a good product,and the schwartz container should keep it fresh,and you save money.
Don't buy - it becomes a solid lump!
the product is fine for a short while, and then it dries into a solid lump, that will not shake out of the jar. Have to try to scrape a bit off with a teaspoon. Will not buy again.
Faulty containers
Totally agree with 'Big problem with containers' comment.
Big problem with containers.
A handy and versatile product which I prefer to dried minced garlic. BUT, TAKE NOTE TESCO, all the jars in this range have a major design fault. The lids be are so loose that damp air gets in and the contents deteriorate too quickly. It's impossible to tighten them. Herbs and spices need airtight containers to keep them fresh. Transfer contents to an airtight container and they will not go hard.

Bring back minced garlic !!
Very messy to use, really too fine, it is like dust. What happened to the far superior minced garlic you used to sell. PLEASE bring it back.
Terrible, solidified in a few weeks, always had mi
Terrible, solidified in a few weeks, always had minced garlic, so won't be using this again.
