While it does work, it's the form of garlic that is the most destructive to the flavor compounds in garlic. Hence most cooks who know something about garlic, avoid it. Garlic powder and flakes are the most effective preserved forms of it.

But even with that this "meme" doesn't have a leg to stand on. You can make do with pre-minced garlic, though you'll end up with a lot more of it in your dish to get the same taste.
