Oh Mona, I like your wink! And yes, I guess so but then I wouldn't want to chase all or too many away.
I used to know a girl at junior school who used to eat raw onions like you or I might eat an apple. She would bring them in peeled and bite into them much as one does. She did that for fun and because she liked them so, had picked up the habit (?) from her Mom who did the same thing and guess what ... she chased people away all the time. Poor kid then, didn't realise why no-one wanted to play with her on her onion days.
Cheers now
