    I keep my onions in the fridge! It's keep that chemical from releasing too strongly. I haven't EVER cried cutting an onion because of this. This is a trick that I learned from my mom and she learned from her grandma! I promise you IT WORKS!!!! Once I didn't put my onions in the fridge and I learned to never leave the out again. :)

    Probably. I'm always WISHING I would tear up... they just make my eyes sting so bad I want to rip them out. It did help (not cure) once I learned how to properly slice an onion, though. (Yay youtube!)

    I think the dumbest thing I've done while cutting an onion was cutting it with my eyes closed. I was trying to feel around with my fingers and nearly lost one.

    But in my durp-defence I've tried everything to keep from crying while cutting them and nothing works.

    The sharper the knife, the lower the fumes......not perfect but I can get through an onion at my house just fine.
