Replying to Cutting Onions
Curious about how many people can handle cutting onions without crying or experiencing eye irritation. I've gotta wear ski goggles when doing anything with them, but most people I know can cut them just fine. I know onions are supposed to release a sulphur compound of some sort when they are cut open, which causes the irritation, but not sure why some people are susceptible, and some aren't.
