The US Senator Rick Scott released a statement this week saying that garlic grown in China poses "major threat" to food safety in the US and requesting to include garlic from China in the List of Goods Produced by Child Labor or Forced Labor and initiate Section 301 investigation.
Chinese netizens responded by saying that only vampires are afraid of garlic.
"Garlic can never pose any kind of threat to the US," Chinese FM spokeswoman Mao Ning has said. Mao urged relevant US politicians to be rational and use their common sense to avoid being mocked.

美国国会联邦参议员斯科特日前发布声明称，中国产大蒜对美国食品安全构成“极大的威胁”，要求发起301调查。
对此，中国网友笑称“只有吸血鬼才会害怕大蒜”。
在12月13日的外交部例行记者会上，中国外交部发言人毛宁表示，相信大蒜做梦都想不到，竟能对美国构成“极大威胁”。“奉劝美方一些政客多些理性常识，免得贻笑大方。”她说。
