  • @LtMajorHippie Or you could just wash the onion after you've halved it.. gets rid of the fumes

  • TO AVOID SORE EYES/TEARS I PLACE A STAINLESS STEEL SPOON IN MY MOUTH TO REMAIN THERE THE ENTIRE TIME THAT I'M CUTTING THE ONIONS.THIS METHOD NEVER FAILS TO PROTECT.

  • put water on your eyebrows it really works

  • put the onion in the freezer for 10 minutes. then when you got to chop it there will be no tearing.

  • wear contacs, problem solved. or wash it in water when peeled, the water will absorb the sulfur gas.

  • @pskully That makes sense and probably works. The flame heats the air and causes an upwards current above it, drawing air in from below and beside it. Just don't use those onion-scented candles that are, um, all the rage these days.

  • @crystalgail316 Sorry, a quarter of what amount???

  • @tmacg86 Exactly.

  • @SoomySooma Sounds like utter nonsense. You think when you cut any part of an onion's flesh it won't bleed just because there's a root connected elsewhere? Makes no sense.

  • @DeepSetEyesDance Yeah and it's also a great way to annoy the hell out of your mouth while looking rediculous at the same time! Go for it!

  • I'm a bio student, so I just pop on my laboratory goggles when I'm slicing onions. My roommates think I'm nuts. It works in the lab and the kitchen!

  • Goggles or contact lenses! works in my house. though axe the googles if you are entertaining better to have weepy eyes than explain the googles!
