Stop whinging and go on a diet already...BeatNikDub wrote: »Sick of having to ask at the deli counter if the coleslaw is rancid raw onion free?
Sick of peering through or having sneaky sniffs of salad bowls only to find everything has been tarnished by the most evil of red onions?
Ever asked for gravy, only to find its littered with chunks of the vulgarity?
Ever ordered a chinese only to find it is 70% onion, 20% meat and 10% peppers/random other vegetable?
If so then join with me.
Also I have some seriously tasty recipes for dinners that require NO ONIONS.
PM's if you want them

Fussy eaters are the scum of the earth.
In fairness to the OP, she's a mean cook...
Our views on the humble onion are about the only area i can recall at this moment in time where our views on pretty much anything diverge significantly, but it's an insurmountable chasm that has reared it's head on many occasions in the past.
I've found myself lying to her in the past about the precise variety of my lunchtime bagels, and what I've cooked myself for dinner, censoring my love of mother nature's tastiest vegetable in order to protect her delicate constitution, and thus have I learnt that those who love and who loathe the humble onion CAN co-exist in peace.

Thank you for sparing me Steve.
I owe you an onion free lunch some time!
lol
Re the garlic being part of the onion family - I do indeed know this but they really arent as evil a vegetable and don't appear in almost every food dish known to man!
I shall add a poll!0 -

hate them ,hate having to put all my sauces through a sieve, hate the sweaty smell, slimey texture, everything, I have a lot of hate for onions. My nan used to make me clean out the sink when I was younger and she would have huge lumps of them covered in washing up liquid floating around and I'd have to pick them out of my bare hands, yuk yuk yuk.
I also hate people who don't believe your hatred and try to chop them up really tiny and stick the fcukers in without you noticing - mother in law I mean YOU. I tell people I'm allergic, seems to work a bit better 0 -

YES YES YES!!
Cutting them up finely is just even MORE annoying. At least if they are largely cut then you can pick the feckers out easy enough.
The allergy excuse sounds GOOD.0 -
