Peeling Onions

[Doc Tinker]

I just learned that chewing gum, while peeling onions, will keep you from crying.

Also, washing your hands with something stainless will remove the onion odor. This is something I learned long ago and it really works.

Doc, I don't know about the gum chewing but the stainless trick works pretty good. How, I have no idea. BTW, I spent 4 months in 1992 in Flint doing an optometry internship. I really enjoyed that town.

What else makes you cry? Sheesh, if knocking off Bambi makes you write jokes... I'd figure you immune to tears #ad

I've always used my scuba mask. It always broke the ice at cookouts. Looks weird, but who cares, it works!

Do you know WHY chewing gum helps? Working in the industry for 15+ years, you learn a lot of tricks!

To peel (alot) of onions and not cry like a whimp: Peel under running water, and breathe thru your mouth, not your nose! That's it, KISS!
