I wear my scuba equipment whenever I cut onions.
Other Answers:
Put it in the refrigerator for an hour before you cut it.
It is best if you have a fan blowing around in the room because then it doesnt send the fumes to your eyes you can bite on a lemon
yes, keep it cold and also run it under really cold water before you cut it.

Cut the onion under water running from the kitchen taps. slice it under running water.
Cut it under water. The onion.
Soak it in cold water first.Some onions (i think the sweet ones) don't make your eyes water. I refuse to cut any onion other than that. I start to cry if I'm in the other room and someone is cutting an onion! Take 2 wooden matches (unlit) and hold them in your teeth so they are held between your eyes and the onion. The sulfur in the matches counteracts the onion's effect. An old trick, but still a good one.
Cut it under running water, or rinse it and your knife and hands often.

Breath in, through your mouth, and breath out through your nose... the reason why your eyes are watering is because it flows up your nose which leads to your tear canal...
freeze it before cutting it... or have toothpicks sticking out your mouth (unused ones)... it's wierd but that's just what i was told. :) serious.Source(s):
lots of "interesting" people ;)
light a candle and blow it out...chew gum...apply fresh lemon juice to your cutting board or counter before use...use all of the above at the same time? no...if you wnat i guess but these are just some i've heard...breathing in your mouth and out your nose helps a little...:) The guy who said the match trick is right ... that works. Or you can slice it into rings after being in the fridge for a while. Cold oniions don't emit so much fumes.
They say to cut onions under cool running water?
safety glasses, and gloves always works good.Boil it first. cold water helps ....
but this is tried and tested:
Do not breathe through your nose, breathe through your mouth ONLY. It really works!! But, one whiff through your nose and you're done. So be careful!
I told my mom, who happens to be a world-class cook, and she was impressed :p hehehe

If you want to cut an onion and not cry there is one sure fire way to do it...have a SHARP knife. There are tinny little sacks of fluid that contain the chemical that makes you cry. If you use a sharp knife it gently slices them open and it doesn't spray...if you use a dull knife it mashes them open and you will cry.

Years of being a profesional chef I've always been told to light a candle. and have it burning while you're slicing it. that really helps. try it. I know I cut onions in everything I eat.
if you peel it under running water it helps to take away the oils that make you tear up. also, rinse your hands frequently and keep them away from your eyes.

So, prepare yourself and let the tears flow. Either cut it under running water, or buy sweet onions which don't release the gas that they yellow ones do that makes your eyes water.
