“What would I have to give you to eat a pickled onion” I’m asked… nothing. An onion will not enter my mouth without a violent confrontation that results in me being unconscious.

In my head I think of that song ". ..and then I go and blow it all by saying something stupid like 'I love you'" but "...and then you go and blow it all by saying something stupid like 'add onions'"

There was multiple times when I asked for a meal to not have a specific ingredient but the cook or waitress forgot.

I used to point it out to the waitress, very politely, without anger, just a desire to get a satisfying meal without awful onions.

But 9/10 times, the waitress look at me like I killed their dog, some replied “We’re sorry but you could move them to the side. or “Huh, so what do you want us to do…??” Which made me feel awful…

Should I be able to ask them, guilt free, that they remake my meal with no extra fees?

It's like radiation. Nothing will take it. Nothing will contain it. Nothing will protect you from it.

U can only feel your mouth being drowned in unwashable pain. But there was nothing else in my fridge...

We had an early morning flight to Hawaii. I was hungry so looked forward to the breakfast, but... onions. So when they started passing out snacks I was eager until they handed me some onion potato chips. We need to rise up and take over the world so these things don't keep happening.

I'm a cook in a breakfast diner and today I washed dishes for awhile. I saw that someone had picked all of the onions out of their chicken noodle soup and left them on their plate. I was just thinking, "YEAH! Onions don't need to be in there, I would have picked them out too!"

I would rather not eat your food, respectfully than to be surprised your food had onions in it. After politely explaining onions make me nauseous.

edit: I made this same post on their subreddit as well to get both opinions but they took down my post so gg

fuck onions ig. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

OK, so the other day I got a sandwich from Whole Foods and I didn't realize that had onions in it and I ate that nasty ass sandwich and I was fucking shitting liquid diarrhea for 24 hours. My asshole burns my stomach burns. How in the fuck do people even like the onions? They are the nasty shit I ever even tasted.

I could barely even breathe, i sounded like a fat ass walking down the hallway with my loud ass breathing.

I got hives on my skin and now it look like a 12-year-old who just hit puberty . I'm in the bus right now scratching myself like a fucking Tweaker.

Luckily there were multiple options without onions. Thank god.

What is one thing you’ve always thought was safe on Thanksgiving, other than desserts? I thought turkey was safe. Nope. Currently on a shit-ton of Benadryl to stop a worse reaction because my aunt, who doesn’t believe I’m allergic and that onions are the nectar of the gods, decided to ruin the turkey. She bought a breast and put it in the crock pot, surrounded by Satan’s ballsacks “to keep it moist and give it flavor.” Didn’t tell me. Yaaaaay for migraine, itchy throat, and gastrointestinal difficulties while I’m at work! 😡😡😡

I've been low-key looking forward to this since I heard about it. Every Sunday I hit up a* local SevLev for a beer and a La Opinion, and I like the idea of adding this apparently life-changing meatless sandwich to my tradition.

Still not sure when, or if, it's *actually* happening, but that's not my main point.

My main point is that, with the many posts on this sub about *n*o*s [gags briefly] being added where they most definitely don't belong, it occured to me that the special difference could be those motherfuckers. So I checked the ingredients.

AND!

Onion free! And so I happily return to anticipation.

It was not. It was crunchy. WHO PUTS ONIONS IN MAC AND FUCKING CHEESE????

Onion jewelry is insane. This is too far.

It is common knowledge that some people experience a soapy taste with cilantro due to their genetics. My theory is that there is something similar with onions that has yet to be discovered. How else could anyone stand the abhorrent taste and smell of this devil's root? It makes logical sense that there is some chemical component to the onion we are reacting to which taints anything it comes into contact with. You can pick onion off a burger for example, but any of us will still detect that objectionable taste. Perhaps onion eaters can't do that because they can't perceive the chemicals the same way we do? Maybe they mean it when they say you can hardly taste it? I'd like scientists to get working on this so when people refuse to take us at our word of how vile onions are, we have something to help explain the true evils of its nature.

It just occurred to me that I might like onions if they didn't burn my eyes when I slice them. Also the horrible smell of raw onions is enough to ruin my appetite. There's also the smell of cooked onions, only mildly better than raw onion. Of course the taste would need to chage as well. No matter how they are prepared it's just a new form of disgustingness. If all those things were changed I might be able to force myself overcome the terrible soft crunch texture that makes me want to immediately empty my mouth.

If all those things could change I think I might like onions.

May tomorrow be relaxing and your food be onion free! I am thankful for this sub. 🦃

(I am cooking this year and there is not one speck of onion in any dish.)

I despise everything about onions and ingesting onions actually causes GI issues for me. Onion flavor is vile. However, I have a secret pass for one particular item: Krystal burgers. I only eat them like one a year, and I get them sans onion, but they're cooked on the same platform as the onions so they retain a dab of onion flavor. I have no idea why, but for some reason it's perfect.

Does anyone else have a secret pass or acceptance for one singular, special, rare thing?

When I first found the onionhate community, I was thrilled to discover a group of like-minded souls who also hated the vile, disgusting, travesty of the worst vegetable on earth. Over time, that comfort has been replaced by abject disgust as the net effect of being a member of this community has flooded my reddit timeline with a stady stream of onion pictures. I have had my fill and must leave as it has become a net negative experience.

I would suggest the subreddit mods figure out a way to address this problem. Is it possible to blur all image posts and allow member to click the image to opt in? Can images sit in the cue until approval? Something that you should think about to improve the user experience. Good luck to all and fuck onions!!

I told my friend about how much I hate onion, and he called me weird, what should I do.
