I can't take this anymoresend help
are you not wearing your onion goggles for some reason
>>21605993It's a coin flip whether an onion will be strong enough to water my eyes when chopped up.Less than a coinflip really.
>>21606002I only buy the strongest onions
>>21605992Get a mandolin, even if you're still going to cry at least you'll be done cutting onions sooner.
Keep them in the fridge, cold onions don't burn eyes as much
>>21606002If you don't need onion goggles then your onions are poor.
Go work in a hot sauce bottling plant, cleaning out 55 gallon food grade barrels of fermented peppers. I did this for a summer job in high school. My eyes never stopped burning.
>>21605992I never cry when cutting onions, am I doing something wrong?
>>21606197No you're immune because you cry every couple of hours about your rampant homosexuality >>21606197
>>21606003
>>21606026this, chilling them slows down the chemical reaction>>21606197it depends on the onion. it's similar to how peppers can be hotter or milder depending on growing conditions.
>>21605992My grandson can't stay erect with a condom on and our two dogs keep barking for more sex. Everyone's really upset about it. I need advice.
>>21606197Unlike all the faggots itt, you probably have a sharp knife and a better constitution than a 13yo girl
>>21606254>a sharp knifememe
>>21606254>better constitution than a 13yo girlrude
>>21606212heh
>>21605992After you do the initial bisection of the onion, run cold water over the cut surfaces to help disperse the irritating compounds.
>>21605992Sure thing buddy, i'll send you a 60x45cm chopping board because that one is too small to ever be useful
>>21605992where's your slapchop you fucking retard? GUNNA SLAP YO NUTZ!
I swear you can build immunity to onion fumes. I used to always tear up while slicing onions, and now 10 years later it never happens anymore, even though I make genovese sauce on the regular which requires slicing 6-7 pounds of it.Never give up, OP. You too can have my worthless superpower.
>>21607792congrats you permanently damaged your nervous system
>>21605992OP you've got three options.1. Wear some science googles2. Place your onion in the fridge about 10-15 minutes before slicing which makes them leech less gas when the cell walls are burst when cut3. Do what I do and keep an ultra-cheapo small counter fan in the corner of the kitchen and turn it on beside your cutting board when doing prep work to blow the gas away before it reaches your face.https://www.amazon.com/Portable-Brushless-Settings-Adjustable-Rechargeable/dp/B0D1MZYX6B
>>21607799>3. Do what I do and keep an ultra-cheapo small counter fan in the corner of the kitchen and turn it on beside your cutting board when doing prep work to blow the gas away before it reaches your face.Surprisingly great idea honestly, can't believe i haven't thought of this myself.
>>21606272That is a 13yo girl, just ate to much cheap estrogen soaked chicken.
>>21605992In addition to what other anons said I can assure you putting them in the fridge before cutting them works but what really helped me greatly was putting a really wet towel next to the cutting board.
sometimes the oninon isnt spicy but when you cut into her and see the milk come on then you know the tears will soon flow
>>21606012Yes anon, use a mandolin as tears fill your eyes making it hard to see.
>>21605993>Not using the three mirror method
>>21606197OP is cutting them slow like mommy does.
>>21606256No it isn’t a sharp knife splits less of the onion so less juice squirts
>>21607792>I swear you can build immunity to onion fumesyou cannot build immunity to sulfuric acid.
>>21606003>Humble Onion Merchant, I desire to purchase some of your strongest Onions
>>21608985Maybe *you* can't
>>21606197Certain ways of chopping them does not release the mustard gas
>>21605992hold a piece of bread in your mouth when you chop onions, it helps to keep the onion juice from getting in your eyes
>>21609406How does he sell enough to make money? Onions are so inexpensive so he'd have to deal in volume which isn't happening on a bicycle. Does he charge like two dollars per onion? Are they fancy, artisan onions? Sorry, they can't possibly taste better than store onions. It's just not that kind of vegetable. I won't pay your prices. And yet I want to support guys like him.
>>21606254>>21606256If you got a dull knife, making more of a slicing motion instead of tapping also helps
>>21605992Graduate.
>>21605992Cut AWAY from your eyes
>>21609541Look at the map next to him. He is in a third world country, he can make a nice living from his onions.
I make a nice living from my "onion" if you know what I mean...
