An onion can make people cry, but there has never been a vegetable invented to make them laugh.
With a varying value, onions form the major part of our staple diet. Our food is incomplete without the Allium cepa L. It can definitely make us cry- while peeling the layers off and when there is a price increase and it can add to the taste as well. Here are some scenarios which all onion lover can relate to:
1. We all love the leftover onions on the plate when we order ‘Onion Parantha’

3. When ‘Rajma/Chole’ is on the menu, our stomachs can’t be satisfied with just this. We need raw onions.
4. Pav Bhaji is accompanied with Onion Rings (always)
5. Onion also has medicinal uses. It helps students to fake fever and bunk school
6. Admit that Onion is the only vegetable that is easy to wash and peel and cut.
7. Almost all food items can be made with onions.
