re: The secret to cutting onions

If you refrigerate the onions and cut them while cold, it'll cut down on the tears.

This is the only thing that works for me. I still tear up a little, but I think my onion-resistance is pretty low. My girlfriend can cut a 100 onions and never shed a tear, but I take one slice and the waterworks come on. Even worse when that stuff gets caught between my glasses and my eyes. Burns like a fire.
