Garlic for inducing Labour 40 weeks

M
Hello ladies. I will be 40 weeks tomorrow. I have been having strong contractions on and off for 2 weeks now, but I have not lost my mucus plug yet. Basically my question is has anyone ever experienced contractions after eating spicy foods, specifically garlic? Did it cause you to go into Labour? I just realized last night that two times that I had very strong contractions I had eaten Pizza with a lot of garlic both times, not on purpose but just because I like garlic on my pizza. While doing some googling last night I discovered that garlic is one of those foods that can cause you to go into Labour. I want to get your opinions if I should eat a bunch of garlic and see if that would get me into labour. Both times I ate the garlic with the pizza I just very lightly sprinkled it on.
