Not allergic, but the very thought of onions (and garlic) in pregnancy made me feel sick. Smelling them or seeing them cooked (with their translucent little stripes) would have me heaving. All the foods I love have onions and garlic in. It was awful.
It's odd, after years of washing dishes for a job I can't stand the smell of garlic or onions when it is coming from the grease left over on a plate or cook wear, but when they are first being cooked the aroma makes my mouth water.
The nose, she is fickle.
I get that. I've been trying not to use the wooden boards for cutting them as it gives off such a weird smell when I wash them.
