    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Its a great kitchen item if you're an epileptic chimp. Otherwise, learn how to handle/use a knife!

    Dunno. I guess you'll have to ask Vince's nuts.

    Guess some of you need remedial reading. How does one chop onions without not only bawling like a baby, but having burning, stinging eyes for a long time afterwards? I've tried everything that way, but always with the same results.

    Anything besides onions I LOVE to chop.

    Cheesh!!!!

    Long term use report....

    That chopper that I listed somewhere early in the thread has performed beautifully. Two swipes, one for each half of the onion, and the job's done. Shows no signs of being "cheap" plastic....it's lasting very nicely.

    The rest of you who like burning, stinging, teary eyes can continue to use a knife.

I'm mainly talking about chopping onions. Vince says nobody needs to cry, life's too short. I can just about get an onion sliced and ready for a conventional chopper without the tears -- but when I used to do that with a knife it really made crocodile tears! OK...I'll ask the guy on the street how much?


    [edit] Just looked it up. I was thinking of the shamwow guy.
    Just use a chopping board and a knife. Don;t worry about the burning eyes and tears. It makes you tough.
