Hold back those tears and start eating sunions

Crying wont be needed to fill that bowl of French onion soup as grocery stores begin carrying a cross-bred, non-tear-provoking version of the traditional onion.

The sunion has been propagated for the last 30 years to reduce onion compounds that create sulphuric acid when they react with eye fluid, according to the Independent.

Following a March release date, only ones own internal pain and suffering will be the reason for crying in the kitchen, or of course chili-hand-to-eye contamination.
