Outside Italy the idea is that Italians eat a lot of garlic. In reality there is a garlic phobia, you learn to cook with a garlic clove gently cooked in oil so it release some flavor and you can the scoop it out. They most of the people cannot digest it and will stay away from garlicky dishes.
I've heard of pici all'aglione but I know they are particularly from an area in Tuscany, so, never had the pleasure to try them.
