Why do some of the pickled cloves turn blue? I've seen it before in pickled okra (which is EXCELLENT by the way!) I've always thrown those out when they go off color, but I see some of yours are blue too.

Some of the garlic has purple skins....I don't know if they are the ones that turn blue or not.....

I always wondered myself why some of the cloves turn blue...

I don't eat them...these are for Jim...aka....Killer Breath.
