Being from Ohio, my mom used onions in practically EVERYTHING! In fact, we had a family joke going that she'd grate onions in her cheerios if she could.

A major problem she always had (and I had as an adult) was the eye stinging/crying. Here's the secret:

Light a candle and place it near the chopping block. As you cut into the onion, the sulfer is eliminated by the flame.

I tried this and it really works!

Unfortunately, now my husband gets all the onions he wants...which leads to other problems lol.

Thanks for the tip! I can't stand to cut onions, but maybe with this, it'll be a piece of cake.
