I do not have my books with me, but I always thought that Quirrell's 
turban being stuffed with garlic was a rumor, brought on by Fred and 
George.  His turban smelled because he had Voldie hiding under there 
so I thought Fred and George assumed he was stuffing it with garlic.  
If it was a rumor then Snape would have no problem sitting by 
Quirrell because it really didn't have garlic in it.  I do not 
remember JK saying that he actually had garlic in his turban, just 
that the students speculated it.  Since I don't have my books with me 
I can not quote canon, Sorry.
