Can onions make you cry?

The answer is yes. Tears are flowing in my cheeks like candle tears ever time I cut the onions.

Onions help me to figure how my sinuses are doing. When I'm congested onions don't phase me. Otherwise when I slice and chop onions I look like somebody beat me up. A salesman came to the door one day and asked me if I was alright?! I said yes. Just been cutting up onions and my eyes are running and my nose is yucky. Sorry mister.

Yes, I have had that happen!

YES! They always make me cry, unfortunately.. It's so annoying, everytime! You're really blessed for that it never happend to you, haha!

@TheInvisibleMan I can only speak for myself. When i peel an onion my eyes do get watery.

No. It really does and I continue to feel the pain for at least 1hour :(

That's quite normal for me to cry badly when I am cutting the onions. This is why sometimes I will put on the goggles. Although it looks weird, but at least it works

Yes, I am a person who cries with onion. I think my eyes are more sensitive. There are many tips available to avoid 'cry' on cutting onion.

Sometimes they can!

They don't make me cry, that is an emotional reaction, bu they sure as heck can make my eyes water and my nose sting every time.

I am really scared of cutting Onions.

No, the eyes of water if you peel onion

You are really lucky. I always cry while chopping onions

I used to wear glasses during this crucial time.. It helps a lot.

I cried when I first encountered it but not anymore. There are varieties than are stronger than others.

It really does make me cry. Glad that it never happened to you and I wonder why.

Of course it has. It's the juice from the onions that make your eyes water and burn.

OMG! Yes thousands of times. Do you cook? chop onions?

Only if they are thrown at me hard enough Seriously, normally no but every now and then if I get a juicy one then I have a little tear up
