I love to eat raw onion. The middle is the sweetest.

Nope, it's not strange or odd. Sometimes, there's nothing better than a cheese and onion sarnie - and I've found that the best onion to use is red, as it's a little sweeter, not so strong as white cooking onions, and adds a bit of interesting colour. It's lovely in salads, and makes a change from spring onions.
Enjoy!

You would be surprised but my husband loves nothing better than to pinch some of the onions I'm chopping or slicing for the meals.
I think loads of people eat things raw, not just onions. I like raw cauliflower for instance.

no but it would be wierd to eat white onion raw.
good recipie:
get some ciabatta bread, goats cheese, and oregano...grill
sweat off some red onion, add red wine or a small amount of marsala (italian alcohol based cooking ingredient) fry off and let cool
put on top of grilled goats cheese and serve with some rocket salad.
this is called a crostini capri i think. it's yummy!

Nope I don't think so ... people say its especially great if you have a cold ... wonder if it would do anything for my hayfever?!
Enjoy the raw onion - you must like the taste - so don't worry about whether or not other folks think it is wierd!!

I would not eat straight-up raw onion, but in sandwiches and salads, etc., red onion is very delicious!

I have heard of a few people that can eat them like apples, it makes your breath smell a bit but as long as your partner is ok with that then no worries there!

raw onion is a good antiseptic. Eat it if you have a sore throat :)
I hate onion breath and it's sometimes too hot for me, but i tolerate it in sandwiches. :)
