I bought a box of veggies and such to make dinner and it included a few cloves of garlic to add to the meal.

I opened them up and then found one of them that looked like this:

Weird garlic clove

I've never seen one like this before. What happened to this clove? Is it just rotten? It didn't smell bad or anything, and felt a bit like a squishy soft candy when I touched it. There's no spots or discolorations or anything, it's just an even yellow.

I decided not to put it in the meal, but could I have? Or would that have ended badly?

That's cooked.

Somehow your garlic bulb was exposed to too much heat, either during drying or during transport.

So, safe to eat, but mild-tasting and won't keep very long.
