    I eat white onions only if they are fully caramelized and dissolved into something, and red onions only raw. Peppers have to be spicy or I can’t eat them. That’s the weird one, I have no problem with the taste or anything but I just can’t swallow them its like my throat is trying to squish a rock or something. If it’s blended into something like hummus its fine though.

      This is kind of what its like for me. White onions, same as you, they need to be basically liquid/mush before i can eat them.

      Red onions however are the devil. I can’t stand them in any form.

      For me its an issue of texture, i hate how it feels to eat onions and peppers. I have been physically sick (vomited) because i bit into a bit of onion/pepper i didnt know was in my food. My body just rejects them.

      White onion= flavour good, texture bad (unless mush) Red onion= flavour bad, texture bad Pepper=flavour overpowering and i am never sure if i like it or not, texture bad.

        I actually only became able to eat them at age 26-27. One day they just didn’t taste like shit any more. Several other thibgs too, but still not brussel sprouts which just taste like dirty dishes or dishes left on a drying rack that have been splashed while washing other things.
