 But are you saying onions are bad, period? No, just for her. If you can eat onions and not have all kinds of deadly symptoms, eat onions. I eat onions. But if you have, every time you look at an onion, you read the word onion, or you eat an onion, you have really, really something that knocks you down and puts you in bed and has all kinds of problems. You ever run to the doctor, don't eat them.
