Prosecutors in Sweden have issued international arrest warrants for two British men accused of smuggling garlic via Norway.Other smugglers have been arrested by police in Britian, Ireland, Austria and Poland for importing illegal garlic.  The main route for evading EU import taxes seems to be via Norway, whence the vegetable is driven over the border into Sweden in freight lorries.  It appears that the British suspects imported 50 lorry loads over two years.
