Onion Goggles provide a solution to the tearing, stinging, and irritation to your eyes when cutting onions, leeks, scallions, and chives. Painful eye irritation occurs when onion vapors make contact with your eye. Onions contain enzymes that turn into irritating fumes when they make contact with the air. Experts agree that the most effective solution is to wear goggles or contact lenses.

These are hilarious. Talk about specialized goggles. I wonder if they would work in other situations like 4-wheeling or skydiving. Or are these truly only limited to the few minutes each week that you cut onions?

I didn't know contact lenses are supposed to prevent your eyes from tearing up. I've worn my contacts and sliced onions at the same time and I was still crying.

there is also the method of eating bread while cutting onions or have a fan blowing air near you that can blow the onion odor/mist/juice whatever it is that is released when cutting them away from your face.

Eating bread? I'm going to try that one tonight.

Eating bread? That's a new one that I haven't heard before. I actually like the crying that comes about from cutting onions. For whatever reason I don't really cry much, so cutting onions lets me give the ducts a good workout.

I have yet to find a problem that eating bread cannot solve.

a friend of mine is a professional chef and had mentioned some really easy way to prevent yourself from crying... These would make a cool gift for the friend that has everything I suppose
