I suspect the candle only really works by starting air circulation through convection - very little of the chemical would actually pass through the flame itself. I get affected quite strongly by the fumes and to avoid this cut a number of onions into large pieces first then cut them up fine only once they're all lined up and ready. This reduces both the average exposed surface area while chopping and the amount of onion juice on the board. If chopping many onions it can be helpful to rinse the board for a second under the tap in between batches done like this. |

That's because I found contact lenses brought me an unexpected bonus. Peeling onions has been no trouble for years. |
