Public Service Announcement to anyone who eats meals with Onions!!!
Edited on Sun Apr-24-05 08:52 PM by LynneSin
I appreciate the fact that although I hate onions, that many of you out there in the world do enjoy piling the onions on when eating. Don't let me be the one to halt your enjoyment of these pungent foods.

HOWEVER

It is kindly appreciated that after a meal heavy in Onions, that you do the rest of the world a favor and BRUSH YOUR DAMN TEETH AND USE A LITTLE BIT OF MOUTHWASH TO BOOT ESPECIALLY IF YOUR MEAL IS GIVING YOU THE BELCHES!!! ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE GOING OUT IN PUBLIC WHERE YOU WILL BE SITTING AMONGST OTHERS

I was at my nephew's recital and the guy sitting behind me was belching Onions, but these onions smelled like they were soaked for days in soured milk or something. It was just nasty. I could hear him belching and then this horrible odor would creep up. My mother thought I was having heat flashes because I kept waving my program in my face even though the church was actually kinda chilly inside.

I ended up moving to some pews along the side of the sanctuary because the odor was so bad. Even the rest of my family (all 5 of them in that row) cramped down to the other end of the pew just to get away from the odor.

Thank you, that's the end of my public service announcement

1. As an onion eater, I had no idea!
I don't mainline 'em, but do enjoy on a fajita, so I'll take your suggestion to heart. :-)

2. I DESPISE onions
they are my single least favorite vegetable, tasting like a sweaty old armpit.

I refer to the "onion" as the "fruit of satan"

3. You, my friend, are now my best friend
I'd rather eat a sweaty old armpit than to eat an Onion. I accidently ate one about 2 weeks ago and ended up chewing like 2 packs of Dentine Ice just to get rid of the taste (I was at work)

5. You think Skinner would give us an anti-Onion group forum?
Edited on Sun Apr-24-05 09:05 PM by Zuni
Because I really, really despise onions (and garlic if I can taste it or smell it---if it is cooked in and mixed well, fine, but if it's strong, whoa---I gag)

Onions --- :grr:

6. Have you ever tried Vidalias or another sweet onion?
I'm not a big fan of standard onions, but sweet onions are delicious.

8. Sweet onions
Sweet onions are like the food of gods. I LOVE sweet onion season.

I also enjoy other mild onions, and I use onions very often. I'm not a big fan of sharp-flavored red onions.

9. Onions are sick
At the cafeteria, the cook seems to use them as the only seasoning in soup. I have to eat carefully lest I crunch down on one of these things. They make me gag and I have come very close to puking.

But, God forbid he not use them. Then we might actually taste his shitty food.

10. The smell of onions comes from your lungs.
Enters the blood stream, blood passes through lungs. Brushing your teeth is not the answer. Too lazy to look for information, but I thought I'd let you know.
