ONIONS REALLY MAKE YOU CRY? do they ??
Onions aren't just associated with stinky breath they actually can cause the person doing the chopping to tear up. According to the Library of Congress, unstable chemicals released into the air during the chopping process cause this phenomenon. Lachrymatory-factor synthase is the enzyme to blame. When an onion is cut, the enzyme is released from the onion and converts the amino acids in the onion to sulfenic acid. The sulfenic acid then transforms into a substance called syn-ropanthethial-S-oxide, which wafts into the chef's face and irritates the lachrymal glands in his or her eyes, causing reflex tears to form
