Onions make you cry by releasing sulfuric acid that irritates your eyes! Actual tips: chill onions before cutting, use a sharp knife, or cut near running water. Onions have been cultivated for over 7,000 years and India produces the most onions globally. The chemical that causes tears (syn-Propanethial-S-oxide) is released when onion cells are damaged. Some people are less sensitive to onion vapors than others!
