Cooked Or Raw Onions

[Lisa]

We just had hamburgers with cooked onions and boy was that a bad choice.

Even, Pre-D, I had a gasious problem with them, but now it is much worse. I guess I need to learn, by now.

Anyone ever react to simple onions.

I love them, but they dont love me

[jkmunchkin]

I don't think I've had any problems with onions, but roasted red peppers... now we're not friends.

[Canadian Karen]

I don't have a problem with onions. Now mushrooms are a different story.

Anyone have a food come out looking EXACTLY the same as the way it did when it went in?

Karen

[Lisa]

Well, I will check the portobella's in the morning. Onions always look the same and reak havoc on their way through.

(PM - love the dress, passed it on the the mistress of cer).

Hope you feel better, glad to have you back. We need your spit and fire.

I have a friend who's non-celiac. Onions give her migraines. She can do shallots and garlic but no onions.

Oh yes...corn!! I mean you would think I didn't even chew the damn thing. Sometimes lettuce, but that is hit or miss, and it's usually atleast shredded on the way out. LOL!

[Lisa]

Alright, I have to confess. Onions do do nasty things to me. But after I went into the living room where hubby was watching tv, I asked him if I night eat. He said what in the world are you talking about.

After I went to the bathroom with nausia and bad cramping, I had the big D. I knew that onions were the culprit. But, very stange thing in the lou, ripply edged things floating. Now, I'm used to things floating, but this was not normal.

He had cut his finger, and covered it up with some sort of clear tape. Upon showering, he took it off and put it in the lou.

After being gluten this weekend, I though I had ingested plastics, or night eating. Holy Cow, I was freekin out. End of story..............but onions are really bad for me. Glad plastics are not on my diet.

[Canadian Karen]

That is hilarious, Lisa!!!!

Hugs.

My husband will eat very overcooked carrots (from can) and they can be seen the next morning in the poop. This has also happened to him - drank carrot juice and next morn had orangey stool. Also happened to him when he ate very red colored frosting from cake and next morn had redden colored stool-more like a deep rosey pink. This could possibly happen with other fruits/veggies but he won't try them to see.

He can't digest onions raw or otherwise. Not even onion or garlic powdered. too much intestinal upset from it.

[Canadian Karen]

Hey Debmidge! How goes it???

Same thing happens here, not only with me, but with the kids. Whenever the kids drink blue KoolAid, guess what colour the BMs are the next day? A nice blue/green hue....... LOL!

Hugs!

My husband has the same problem with onions. Now we only use sweet onions for everything and he eats them fine with almost every meal (because I LOVE onions and garlic). He has learned that he cannot eat anything with onions or onion powder away from home because they use the cheap onions.

Sweet onions are less acidic and don't bother the tummy. No more smelling up the entire upstairs, no more camping in the bathroom unless he eats them out.

He has similar problems with tomatoes so we stick with the yellows most of the time for the same reason.

Try the sweet and see if that helps...

Corn for me too. And that's probably been for twenty-thirty years.

[jerseyangel]

Ditto on the corn--and spinach! I don't have trouble with onions as long as they're well cooked.

[Canadian Karen]

If the newbies need any more proof that we will discuss just about ANYTHING, all they need to do is check out this thread!!!!

Karen

[jerseyangel]

Full disclosure here!

[wolfie]

No onions for me either. They kill me! Raw are the worst, especially the red ones. I once ate a tiny piece of a red onion and had such bad cramping and D that I almost went to the hospital! I won't even eat them cooked. I can't do garlic either. Powders of both are out too. I eat very bland food here! LOL!

[ianm]

No onions here either. The EPA has to evacuate the neighborhood. Good thing that doesn't happen with Altoids. No where else but Celiac.com can we discuss these things.

I was laughing so hard, I hit the wrong key and almost had to start another topic!

[Canadian Karen]

Ouch! Now THAT would burn!

Oh well, it could replace Preparation "H" Cooling Gel in a pinch!

Thanks Lisa, needed a good laugh

I love onions, but never eat them if I'm going out or having anyone in. They don't give me D, but rather a very powerful ... shall I say 'skunk' effect.

[Rae]

Yeah guys,,,I love onions- but they bloat up my stomach,,,same with garlic. As for the poo,, I see spinach, red peppers, corn- yes my poo is very colorful. These convos are great- to know I can talk about poo with people I never met before...the world is great!

[Guest Robbin]

Poo is a very important topic to us here. I can usually tell what I had for dinner the night before. Hope that stops soon. I asked my husband once, before I was gluten-free if he could tell what foods he ate from the poo and he said he never found poo in the toilet so interesting that he actually STUDIED it.! I told him he just took his healthy poo too much for granted. You spend as much time on the throne as some of us have, you can't help but study it! Oh, yeah, forgot the thread... Onions are the worst. Any way, shape, or form!!
