Why can't Buddhist people eat garlic?

Onion and garlic are two of the five spices mentioned in Buddhism. Eating the five spices is not conducive to practice for three reasons:

1. Eating the five spices raw and having a long temper.

2, cooked with five spices, long lust.

3. Eat five spices, keep close to evil spirits and keep away from good spirits.

Because evil spirits like the smell of five spices, they often come to get close to this person. And the good god hates the taste of five spices and stays away from this person. Garlic, in particular, is meat and belongs to one of the five spices. Garlic is a spicy plant, and it is easy to get angry when eaten raw. Cooked food will cause lust, so it is inedible for the sake of abstinence.
