do you know how onion makes us cry? and how to stop it .........

[Guest guest]

However if you peel your onions with either your mouth open OR a match in

your mouth OR with running water which of course none of us now do - OR peel

them under water OR keep them in the fridge - you don't cry - as you can

tell I have peeled many onions in my time

do you know how onion makes us cry?

 

 

Are you fond of cooking? Is kitchen your favourite place to spend your

leisure time? Cooking is fun, but when it comes to mince the onion

sometimes it really bother us. It hurts the eyes that our tear goes

out as if we are crying. Anyway, do you actually know why that happen

to us? Why do we cry when we are mincing the onion?

 

Here is the explanation. The skin cell of onion has 2 layers. One part

contains the allinases enzyme, and the other contains sulfide enzyme.

When we are mincing the onion, the cell brokes so both of the enzymes

go out and are splashed out to the air. The allinases enzyme

decomposites the sulfide enzyme to sulfonat acid. This acid is not

stable so that it metamorphs to amino sulfokside gas. This gas hits

the eyes and reacts with the liquid at retina and it produces soft

sulfur acid. This soft sulfur acid irritates the nerve at retina. The

irritation hurts our eyes so that tears come out as a response to

lessen pain

A match in your mouth?

Who thought of that idea? (probably the same person that thought it would be

tasty to eat what came out of the chickens butt ---

hehehehehehehehehehe)

But then if it works, hey I am game besides I like those chicken eggs too!

You gotta light it for the toilet trick :-) The burning sulfer supposedly neutralizes the odor but I think it really just covers it up!
