    Allium family also make the world nicer, even those for the kitchen have nice flowers if planted.

        There are several webs of ornamental allium which show how to plant and care for them, the different species, etc.

        They grow mostly spherical, but depending of the species of ornamental allium. Also a normal onion has a beautifull flower if you plant it.

        Onion

        Garlic

    My mother does not like onions.

    I am glad I did not inherit that horrific genetic abnormality.

      My gf does not like the texture of onions.

      The taste is fine with her, so I think I’m gonna have to get used to cooking for her with minced onions…

        My mom was (and is) a terrible cook in many other ways, but the ‘I’m not making you anything with onions in it’ as a kid kind of sucked.

        I’m just glad my grandmother was a good cook.

          I feel bad for my brother right now, since his gf cannot have onions and garlic due to a food intolerance. At least spring onions are still tolerable, but still…

      I don’t like onions. It’s literally the one food I do not like. I’ve tried them many times, many ways, and still nope.

        Raw and cooked? Maybe try it minced, cooked extremely soft and mixed into a sauce so there are no visible pieces?

          I will use it to cook in soups and such, but otherwise, no thank you. I’ve replaced it with leeks and shallots.

            Shallots and leeks are nice! Welcome to the Allium family:)

      Heh! The pointy ones are shallots. I agree that Chinese chives or European Leeks or something equally different would have better rounded out the set.

    When I first started to cook for myself, I ignored using onions and garlic because I didn’t think they would make that big a difference 🤡

      I always thought onions and garlic made breath bad so I don’t put them on anything and I don’t give them to anyone.

    Their foil is pretty good at keeping stuff fresh too (as well as making good anti-mind-control hats)

      It’s fine as long as you’re not a robot made out of aluminum or something.

    You include shallots, but not spring onions? I feel offended.

    It sucks having an allium intolerance… no one will take my garlic from me though, even if it makes me miserable later
