I love onions and garlic.

Never understand why people have an aversion to these vegetables.

I’m more partial to garlic 🧄, but that’s just me.

Onions are one of the first food crops humans ever domesticated. If you don’t like them don’t eat them and quit whining.

Sweet Vidalia Onion or Sweet Red Onion on peanut butter and white bread. Try it. You’ll love it.

“I love onions and garlic”

Me too. Everything I make has those two ingredients.

My sister loved onions, then she got COVID. I gave her my ivermectin and she was mostly over it in 3 days and completely over it in 6 days. Now, she can’t stand onions.

I like most onions most ways. That said, the taquerias around here insist on grilling their steak or chicken with the onions and bell peppers (”fajita” style). All it does is turn the meat into a soggy mess. Grill the meat separately, and add raw onions after.

Genetics mostly. Not everything agrees with everybody. Either it tastes funny to them, or they have a bad reaction. My wife used to love onions, but then she developed an allergy, it’s worse if they’re raw but she still avoids cooked too.

Then of course there’s bad life experience. Maybe your mom cooked this terrible meal over and over in your childhood and anything from it is just torture. Or food poisoning. I haven’t eaten a Swedish meatball in 40 years because food poisoning. Just smelling them turns my gut. Which is sad cause I used to love them.

Agreed.

Downside for me is onions can result in a rather unpleasant gas, depending on the preparation.

Not sure how you can cook without garlic and onions...and have it be fit to eat.

I don’t eat a large amount of raw onions, but I could not cook without onions and garlic. I’d like to try shallots, but can’t justify the cost.
