My mate has a pair of vintage biggles style goggles that he wears when he's chopping onions.

One of the chefs was cooking with Chillis, he took a "rest break" and forgot the Golden Rule that you wash your hands BEFORE as well as after.

His screams put most Hammer House of Horror to shame.


I am willing to bet now that EVERY guy reading this has paused for a second to consider the pain....

Hello Guys the chopping onion has a little track of sulfuric acidity in it. it spray in the air and irritates your eyes.you could get a chopping onion at wal-mart or some food market to help quit irrigating eyes.Thanks!!

If you put a bit of bread on the chopping knife you have no problem at all but keep the outside door open just in case.
