I have an even better idea for not crying. Just don't use onions! :) We have no onions in any of our recipes. My husband won't eat them and I don't really like them either, so we literally have no onions in the house. We have a son who likes to "prove" that he likes them by eating them when we occasionally eat out, but other than that, we're an onion-free family. Pretty interesting information you have here! Thanks for sharing the research! And those goggles are pretty awesome looking. ;)
