They seem to be a great treat when served along with a salad or any sandwich. Okay! The repelling odour is just a myth. This is possible only if a person consumes nothing but just onions. Too much of something is not good right!! On a serious note, onions are used to add that extra flavour to the meals which make your mouth water at the mere “sniff” of it.
