    We never talk about “vit lök”, it doesn’t really exist as a concept in Swedish,

    Do you mean to say there isn’t garlic in Sweden??

      As I said, garlic is called “vitlök”, not “vit lök”

      “Vit lök” means “white onion”, and does not exist

        Given what you wrote, my question makes sense. Not sure why I was downvoted for a reasonable question.

          Because I just explained it and even noted the spacing difference between “vitlök” and “vit lök”

            You didn’t explain it originally. You could have easily but you didn’t. Apologies for being curious. I do know that most Swedes aren’t jerks.
