babe saw your reblog and you need to sharpen your knives (properly!) if cutting onions makes you cry. the sulfur compounds are only really released using dull blades <3
so i learned from a friend a few months ago that the problem is likely that i was using serrated knives bc those were the only sharp knives i had but years of cutting onions with serrated knives and my eyes burning as a result has made it so i just prefer to avoid cutting onions altogether bc i get scared lmao (bc it hurt my eyes so bad). i have since procured non-serrated knives and hopefully in the future i will become brave enough to try again
