        Ah, new word unlocked.

        Alliaceous is an adjective meaning to resemble, smell, or taste like garlic or onions. It often describes plants belonging to the Allium genus, such as leeks, chives, and shallots, which are characterized by their pungent, pungent, and savory scent.

          Thank you, saved me the trouble of looking it up! There’s a word I’ll probably never find occasion to use.

            Next time someone doesn’t put enough onion in a dish you can ask for it to be “more alliacious.”

          Sorry, yeah. I’m using it to mean “of or relating to onions.”

            No shit. I thought you meant in relation to garlic. Thank you for clarifying.

      It’s technically about Global Tetrahedron acquiring InfoWars along side of its other property The Onion.

      So we’re safely in nottheonion territory but don’t try to post this in notglobaltetrahedron.
