Answers:
Onions, and garlic, are both good blood cleansers, and have antiseptic properties. I love onions, too, they make good foods better. They are good for you, so Why not? There is a breath issue, but so what? Its better if those close to you like them too, tho! If I feel a cold or flu coming on, I will make a soup out of onions, garlic, and peppers, It usualy stops the cold right away!

me too,

make sure you take mints or tic tacs everywhere u go!

Health Benefits

Onions, like garlic, are members of the Allium family, and both are rich in powerful sulfur-containing compounds that are responsible for their pungent odors and for many of their health-promoting effects. Onions contain allyl propyl disulphide, while garlic is rich in allicin, diallyl disulphide, diallyl trisulfide and others. In addition, onions are very rich in chromium, a trace mineral that helps cells respond to insulin, plus vitamin C, and numerous flavonoids, most notably, quercitin.

Good for you
I get gas these days
Just to sound off
Back in the mid 50's at Boy Scout camp when hungry after lunch We still had bread ONIONS and simple condiments
I had many onion and mustard treats before the Dinner meal.
HA thank's

Your body might need sulfur. Cravings can be (but not always) sparked by certain deficiencies.Your body will tell
you what it is needing, and if you are craving onions, or
eggs, or chocolate it is generally because there is
something you need from that food item, for some reason.
So, if you like onions anyway enjoy them till the craving is gone. They aren't high calorie! they are low in calories (about 30 per 1/2 cup serving), and are a good source of vitamins C and B6. And they contain no fat.
Chewing on parsley will get rid of the onion breath!

Onions are good for you...they dilate your blood vessels and make the blood flow better in your body...they are good for diabetics too...they cook out real well and don't have too many calories..eating them raw is perfectly acceptable.Rock on with onions! They aint too good fer yer love life however...you may wanna icksnay on the onyonslay on the date day...LOL

I like onions also but I love Pickled Onions, both white and brown.

Me too! And I do like them on and in EVERYTHING! I sometimes just saute them up and eat them alone!
