The specific history of Laba garlic is unknown; One popular saying is that "garlic" and "count" are homonyms in Chinese. Businessmen usually count their financial income and expenditure of the year in lunar December eighth, and creditors also collect debts on this day. Because this day is close to China's traditional Spring Festival, the firms tapu direct debt collecting in people’s homes. So the gift of vinegar pickled garlic indicated debt collection.
The Laba garlic being made in the eighth day of December also has a correlation with Buddhism. Buddhists allusion in this day Sakyamuni attained Buddhahood, some say Laba garlic is prepared for Buddha.
