For real. Waiting until Halloween to introduce them to the deliciousness of caramelized onion...

In my mind its not cooking unless it involves cutting an onion

Onions are s-tier

But just raw dogging onion sounds like hell.

Love the taste of 'em, but onions also give me awful gag reflex to the point I need to have them removed from my food. Otherwise I risk vomiting on the spot D:

I would add potato to that list. People fucking love potatoes on lots of forms.

Also just if they are cooked. Caramelized onion is amazing.

How might one acquire such onions?

Same. For me it's a texture and appearance thing. I just don't like the look of cooked onions.

But the flavor of onions is great to me so if they're raw red or sweet onions or cooked into something but undetectable I love emm.

I feel this way about a lot of food textures and what does/doesn't go together.

Could be the same for your kids.

Caramelized onions are, sure. But i'm assuming the 4chan poster bit into a raw onion with a Carmel glaze, however, which does not seem appetizing to me.

I think the apples that are typically used are the sour varieties so that there is a flavor contrast when biting in to it. This is just what I heard though, I usually don't like whatever is covering them.

Try slicing a tart apple like granny smith and dipping it into caramel. Worst case scenario, you can stop combining them and just eat them separately.
