How to Prevent Onions from Making You Cry

1. Chill the onions in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before peeling or chopping them. Sulfuric vapors move slower in the cold-think about
how garbage smells worse during hot weather.
2. Leave the onion root intact until the last possible moment to prevent irritants from escaping into the air. The root contains the largest
concentration of sulfuric compounds in an onion.
3. Chop or cut the onion with a sharp knife. Fast, clean slicing puts less pressure on the onion tissue and minimizes the release of sulfuric
compounds. A sharp knife also allows you to expedite your slicing and reduce your exposure to the onion fumes.
4. Open a window or light a scented candle close to your chopping station. The hot flame of a candle will attract tear-causing vapor and will
reduce the amount of vapor circulating in the air

Answer 1

Deleting everything except the first sentences of each numbered step.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first sentences actually tell you what to do while the rest just explains why they're telling you to do it. If you read that article, all you would want to know are the steps to prevent crying while cutting onions, not necessarily the science behind those reasons.
