Have you ever tried chopping onions with sunglasses on?

Works good with me.

I think she should get Mari or Jimbo to chop them for her.

That would be about as successful as you doing it for me. And you have sharp knives, and practice in using them.

So you'd be like way better.

What I really need is some of that anime hair gell that expands your hair to ten times the normal volume and makes it all shiny.

Of course it is that it's liable to turn it an unexpected colour. But that might be fun too.

When I still had a vento over my stove, I would just turn it on and cut the onions under that. It would draw the evil onion fumes away from my eyes.

I'm not sure sunglasses would work.

I wear my glasses all thew time and the onion cry gas can get to me. I just cut the suckers at arms lengh.

Or you could cook things without onion in them. ;)

EDIT - Okay, I've just read the onion comic, and Karen with a wooden spoon between her teeth is the cutest thing I have seen so far today. :)

My mum cuts onions under running water and has no problems with sore eyes.

Now THERE'S a smart person. Cripes... *scribbles notes*

What better way to keep the acid from your eyes?

**Weetomuncher** · 10-06-2006, 08:09 AM

You can also buy little tubs with cut up dried onions in them which are great for stews and things like that and obviously don't need to be cut.

**Royal** · 10-06-2006, 09:14 AM

Well, where's the fun in that?

**the4thpip** · 10-06-2006, 09:24 AM

Real men climb on chairs and cut onions above their heads, on the ceiling, so all the acid goes into their eyes to make them tough.

But I don't want to be a real man.

I don't even want to be a fake one.

I bet you'd look adorable with a Groucho Marks mustache!
