What π§ means
The tone is casual and often humorous. People use it when sharing recipes, ordering garlic bread or naan, or joking that you can never add too much garlic. It also shows up in jokes about bad breath and the old story that garlic keeps vampires away. Some people send it when talking about home remedies for colds. In Indian and Pakistani chats it is common in cooking talk, since garlic, or lehsun, is a base for tadka, chutneys, and curries. It has no hidden or rude meaning.
In texting
Usually it is about food, often to say a dish needs more garlic. It can also be a playful warning about garlic breath.
