That's iridescence.. we were talking about it a few posts up :cool: It's normal and won't cause you any trouble.

Ok, ok I admit I'm the minority. I'll just have to deal with the fact that other people like onions. I think I can live with it ;)

That sounds awful =(((( I eat tomatoes raw, and I have a friend who hates them as much as I hate onions :tongue: At least with tomatoes I don't bother everybody with terrible breath afterward ;)

I have also steered away from the artificial sweetener/diet soda craze. In fact, I can count on one hand how many times in a month I drink soda. In all, soda is just not good for you. It's basically just high fructose corn syrup diluted a bit in fizzy water. At least, that's my horrific...

I grew up eating peanut butter that was never refrigerated. In fact, the first time I saw somebody pull a jar of pb out of the fridge, I laughed and asked why he would do a such silly thing! It was as strange as if someone kept their silverwear or crackers or something in the fridge. I've...

Hey all!! Thanks so much for your replies. You've given me a LOT to think about!! I definitely know what the problem with celery is.. they bother me a lot too lol. It's similar to the red pepper thing.. their taste gets into everything else and they're very distracting! I love celery...

I am familiar with iridescence. This was definitely not what was on my steak! It was a really sickly, greenish-grey and the rest of the steak had a slimy or hard *crust*. I believe people have a built-in ability to sense when their food is bad or off, and I could see it across the room...

Ah see, this is exactly what makes me think I'm the only person with this problem >< Nobody else seems to mind onions, while I always get sick from their horrible aftertaste and stench. I do notice that things taste a tiny bit different if they are cooked without onions, but it is a difference...

That's strange. I have never heard of a white sweet potato, and I LOVE sweet potatoes! (Or are they yams? ;) ) I have known that yams are commonly eaten in African countries, and even used as a form of currency. I don't think I've ever tasted one, but I would imagine they are more similar to...

Hi all! I have a question that really bugs me sometimes. First let me say, what I'm about to say is very much prejudiced.. I absolutely cannot stand onions! The taste, the smell, everything about them makes me sick to my stomach. They leave such a horrible taste in my mouth and their flavor...

Oh thank you so much for the quick replies!! It's been weighing on my conscience all day lol. And now I can give him a big "told you so!" as well ;) But I'm really glad I didn't risk our health for the sake of a dinner I can make any other day.

Hi all. I'm trying to figure out something that happened to me last night. I came home from work, ready to cook a dinner I'd been planning. I asked my boyfriend to pick up some steak, which he did, and he had been home about an hour earlier than me. Anyway, when I started to cook, I took a...
