I hope so. This means that my mum will live to her 100s then. She's crazy for this stuff. Story time:

>going to the market with my mum
>mum puts a few trays of Brand A garlic bread into the cart
>we walk a bit and grab a few other items
>couple sales representatives of Brand B see the cart
>roughly my age, 30~40yo, also men
>they get mildly curious, ask me about it
>trying to genuinely understand customer preferences
>they also noticed that I didn't buy barbecue stuff
>I point to mum and say "the garlic bread is hers"
>mum spends 15min talking with one of representatives
>about her breakfast garlic bread
>why she prefers that brand
>how they could improve their own brand
>the other representative annotates stuff nonstop
>months later Brand B releases a line of garlic bread with hot pepper

Moral of story: if you see a cart full of extra spicy garlic bread being pushed by an almost-40yo with a beer belly, don't assume that it's for barbecue. Sometimes it's for the breakfast of some granny alongside him.

Garlic bread is my favorite food. I could honestly eat it for every meal. Or just eat it all the time without even stopping.

Add more garlic and you'll be fine.

I don’t like garlic bread. Don’t really like garlic much at all. Thank you for your kind wishes.

Well you're a robot, it makes sense that you'd have no taste

I love garlic, but it is a painful stressful experience for me if I each too much. Garlic bread is 100% effective at getting me to eat too much garlic.

I regret nothing. Garlic bread and it's holy cleansing fire will be consumed.

Did they seriously translate Inshallah/Mashallah?

It's commonly used just that way in a lot of languages without replacing it since the meaning or rather connotation can also get lost when translating it easily.
