This is at a restaurant. Someone paid money for cheese and raw onion on bread. What are we doing here?

Probably drinking first and eating secondarily

There’s not enough booze in the world to make me rawdog an onion like this.

Funny. We Iranians almost always eat raw onions alongside food, but everyone in the west seems to hate them unless it's dripping with 6 liters of frying oil

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

I think if you tried the onions we have available to us, you'd understand.

[–] FrChazzz@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

I eat them raw as a topping/side, but I like pickled onions best.

It's not uncommon for US BBQ to be served with a side of raw sliced white onion.

The older I get the more I desire the raw onion.

It really depends. Raw onions are common on hot dogs, burgers, salads, and various other foods.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wait wait wait wait. You guys put raw onion on hotdogs and burgers? Not fried onions?

[–] EvilMe@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Brit here, but we put any style of onion on and in anything, raw onion, fried onion, pickled onion, caramelized onion or onion chutney, take your pick.

[–] DNU@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

raw onions are life.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago (3 children)

By the west you mean Americans, the rest of us are fine with raw onion.

[–] Lvdwsn@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Plenty of Americans like raw onion, myself included.

[–] ExtantHuman@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Americans eat it as a topping on salads, burgers, hot dogs, and sandwiches. Not as an entire layer of the sandwich though.

[–] arrow74@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

American here, my grandmother would eat an onion would cut an onion with a knife like a. Apple and eat the pieces
