Like their name suggests, some storage onions will keep for up to 8 months, unlike the fresh onion limit of 1-4 weeks. However, the color is not very indicative of the flavor, you have to look to the actual variety or where it was grown. Fresh onions should be kept in perforated plastic bags in the refrigerator. Onions must be kept away from potatoes. Though they also like cool dry places, potatoes give off moisture which hastens the onions demise.
Onions contain sulpher, which is released when they are cut.
When the sulfer hits the moisture in your eye, sulfuric acid is created, causing tears. The only way to absolutely avoid tears is to wear goggles preventing the sulfer from hitting your eyes. Hamburgers are Always a Favorite. A homemade hamburger is always well-received, whether cooked on the stovetop, in the oven or outside on the grill. Of course, if you don't have a taste for veal, buffalo, or ground beef, you can always substitute ground chicken or turkey.
