When I was a boy my cousin had his birthday party at McDonalds. I never liked their cheeseburgers because I didn't like onions much. I asked my aunt for nuggets instead. When she said "no" to the nuggets I asked for a burger without onions. She said no and plopped an onion filled burger in front of me. When I refused to eat it she forced me to. To this day I cannot eat raw onions. Cooked ones I can at least handle but any raw onion on a burger or anything else is disgusting to me. Like you, I know it's silly but I just can't do it. I guess what I'm saying is that while I love Tomato's, I completely understand.
