    Put them in the fridge for a bit before you cut them! I haven't tried it but apparantly it works - also breathing through your mouth, and using super sharp knives so you can get it done as quickly as possible is what I do ! !

    Goggles?

    I've cut onions straight from the fridge and it's been just as bad as straight out of the pantry!

    but WOAH stuff chopping 5kgs!

    I've done it with safety glasses before! It helped a bit I think as long as I looked straight down at them and not an angle! they were sunglasses ones so the sight looked rather amusing to my mother!

    Did you know you can buy onion goggles and have been told they work. I have a friend who swears by them

    I mainly use my tupperware chopper these days
