Trolling fit bros

but, raw onion is just fucking good. why would you need to troll somebody into eating it?
- Are you eating onion like a fuckin apple? Btw the skin has the most testo boost
  
  Oh yeah and if you rub it in the arm pits you get to make both your skin and the onion testo boost stronger
  
  I legit used to work with a lady who would do that. Her dad trolled her with an onion he told her was a weird apple as a kid. She loved it and just kept eating them. She was an interesting individual. In the best way.
  
  Btw the skin has the most testo boost
  This is misinformation.
  Everyone knows that you get the biggest boost to testosterone by leaving the onions until they start to degrade; yes, this is the point when the chemicals that make you cry are strongest, but if you can hold back the tears then you get +50 testosterone.
  
  I heard there was a study that said you have to rub hot chilli's on the outside of the skin first to make it convert the T into something the body can uptake.
  
  no, but i do enjoy slices of onion and cheese as a snack from time to time.
- I like raw onion but it doesn't like me :(
  
  Same, but I power through anyways
  
  Are you allergic to alliums? Or just doesn't sit well? I think raw onions might not be good for me, so I'm just wondering...

On CNN the hacker named 4chan strikes again
- Good thing I have curtains, and a dog

Omfg I have a friend who claims he just loves eating raw onions and I know why now 🤯😂
- And perhaps that explains why a colleague of mine is eating onions.
  
  Couldn't it just be that they taste great?
  Or are they eating them whole like an apple? That seems extreme.

Except, A lot of people eat raw onions. On salads and sandwiches. Sometime I caramelize some onions and put them on a sandwich along with raw onions. I guess they cancel out when I do that ;)
- Don't forget about pico de gallo. Raw onion, tomato, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and salt. And that's just one of many Mexican foods that use raw onion.
- Pickled red onions are one of my top sandwich toppings. Easy to make and so goddam good.
  
  I love these, what's your go to recipe?
  
  ITT people discussing how good not-raw onions are.
- Yeah but do they post up how much more manly and full of testosterone they feel afterwards?
  Yeah, some people do like raw onions. Some like Vegemite. The trick is b getting the people who don't to eat them
- Once you caramelize onions they are socially acceptable in a much larger context.
  Change my mind.
  
  All onions are good onions. Big onion is best onion though
  
  Change my mind.
  I don't want to.
- i like raw onion but im not gonna eat a WHOLE raw onion let alone MULTIPLE

Bro science is bad science.
- Bro is bad

Back in my day you wore them on your belt.
- Only the yellow ones.
  Because of the war.
  
  I want all the context please

Jokes on you, I'm Hungarian, I eat raw onions!
- There good on burgers and hotdogs
- And why wouldn't you. I tend to not bite into the whole thing but suffer from occasional urges to do so.
  Still remember that maybe 10 years ago on our way to Romania two grandpa's in a restaurant in Hajdúnánás ordered some huge chives to dip in salt with their beers.
  I ordered the same 10 minutes after and both gave me a drinking salute. Still eat it in summer, amazing healthy snack.
- Raw onions are delicious.

Was actually deciding between posting here or posting on chaoticgood.
- Personally, I think Satan (well, Lucifer) is the perfect embodiment of chaotic good
  
  We'll have to disagree on agreeing.
- Why didn't you just cross post to both? Fits well in both.
  
  Crosspost for crossfit?
  I know where the exit is, don't worry.

Raw onion is good! Though I wouldn’t just eat a whole one lol
- Raw red onion is amazing in sandwiches, and I've eaten chopped white onion on hot dogs, and that's pretty good, too. Just straight-uo eating an onion by itself? No.
- One of the best things to scoop hummus with.
  
  Catastrophic tooting ensues
- Nobody said it wasn't good.
  
  watch people suffer while eating raw onions
  Literally this post did

At least they are just making them eat onions, it's not like it's going to make them sick or anything.

Why would someone care about their testosterone levels? If it's causing a problem shouldn't you are a doctor. If it's not then there is no problem in the first place.
- Because an entire generation of online grigters convinced people that "big testo good, small testo bad". The same people who think baldness is a sign of low testoteron or that thin men have low t.
  
  Isn't baldness literally linked to high testosterone?
  
  Well at least they are getting their veggies.
- It's one of the four humours of brodom.
- Can't say for much, but I do know testosterone is a drug (aka steroids) people willingly take to pursue a super muscular body type. Wouldn't be surprised if people tried alternatives to get the same effect, especially since onions are technically "natty" (natural)
  There's probably also some folklore on test outside of bodybuilding, wouldn't be surprised if toxic influencers promoted it
  
  Testosterone it's not a drug, but a hormone.

So like, did he compose entire fake studies for a laugh or are there real scientific studies out there about the effects of raw onion on testosterone
- People will believe anything so long as you sound authoritative enough and if people don't reason about it enough. It applies to everyone even me
  
  I believe you!
  
  Ok well in the absence of real information I am going to imagine he photoshopped an infographic together
  
  Little known fact. The leading cause of receiving a cancer diagnosis is being screened for cancer.

The modern internet in a single image.
I'm a bit skeptical of Twitter Verified posters though. Makes me think jeeba made that up for Twitter engagement… I guess that’s fitting, too.

Jeeba is a Nazi apologist
- Ooof. I should have known and blurred out their name. Or at least, just assume anyone on Twitter is a Nazi apologist.
  
  Everyone on Twitter is literally a Nazi apologist.
- 4chan user in nazi association shocker

/fit/ is the best board

I dated someone who started the butter diet online. they did it as a joke and then these fat people started to eat raw butter and shit themselves fatter.
most probably have high cholesterol or blocked arteries by now.
dumb people gonna dumb.
- Deliberately posting misinformation and misleading people doesn't make them dumb. It just makes the world a worse, more confusing place.
  
  deliberately believing everything you read online without questioning the validity, makes the world a worse more confusing place.
  it also makes you dumb as shit.

I'm sure that not everyone who frequents/ed that sub fits the profile you are imagining. Please don't do this.
- It's too late

Diabolical

Reminds me of that time when I was spamming on FB groups that dog food contained chloroquine

If you eat them with the skin on, you'll have so much testosterone that people will elect you to lead your country.
- Wtf? Is that madness or fortitude?
  
  New word unlocked: Mortitude.

You might think eating raw onion is abnormal but you guys do it wrong, you need to eat it in small pieces with salt dips alongside food for that burn which goes nicely
- Cut in squares add salt and oil, stir and let it stay in oil and salt for 5-10 minutes. Eat. No longer that spicy or strong onion taste.
- Kebabs have a bit of raw onion in them, the unusual thing is just eating the raw onion like an apple.
- Try Balkan fast food, where you get a heapful of raw onions with your meal.
- Isn't chopped onion on McDonald's hamburgers? If not I know for a fact that it's a thing at greasy spoon type places in San Bernardino though usually it ain't chopped just a whole ass ring or two.
  
  Huh. Memory unlocked. The raw onions on McDonald's burgers are why I always got nuggets as a kid.
  Nowadays I'll have some raw red onion in a sandwich on occasion, but hate the burps that follow.
  
  Yes, that's how I learned i was ok with onions as a kid.
  
  I can't think of a 'build your own burger' place, whether a backyard grill or a restaurant, that doesn't have the raw circled onion slices available.
- I always thought you at it like an Apple like then Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott did not just once, but two occasions. One example
  And this man is the pinnacle of manliness

I just balance it out by alternating. I'm so macho I have to watch out how much I increase my testosterone.

i remember inadvertently tricking a friend to smoke dried onion epidermis. We were young and i made an obviously stupid joke about different highs. He didn't get the joke and came back to complain about the terrible headache he had after smoking onions. 🤷

We had a guy in one of my classes a where his housemates convinced him that juicing onions was a great way get gains. They immediately regretted the decision since he committed hard core for about 6 months. Surprised he didn’t damage himself with all the acidic juice
- .....the smell of his BO........
  
  It was brutal I could smell him before he entered a lecture hall
  
  Ya could probably smell him a mile away.

I'll take a raw Vidalia/sweet onion any day! I usually do, but not like the whole thing lol
- Ya. Skip the seeds in the middle.
  
  Wouldn't want an onion tree to grow in my stomach!

Wow. So the new morality is that it's okay to be an asshole if the target is crowd-approved and it creates something amusing to click on. So much more Enlightened than boomers!
- These aren't some vulnerable protected class of people, it's workout bros, if they can't look into a study to see it's bullshit that is on them. I agree though it's a bit rude.
  
  Oh I know... crowdsourced blanket judgements of entire groups of people are right as long as the right people do it and they're right about it. Very common mentality, becoming more so in the meme era. I just don't happen to agree with it.
- why would you think this is a moral action?
  
  I don't, I meant OP appears to think it is, since people almost universally think their own actions are moral.
- Yes, it is moral to mildly inconvenience assholes.
  
  I don't have a dog in this fight, not into fitness and my testosterone seems fine, but I think it's as ignorant as it is arrogant to decide a whole group of people are assholes because they have certain hobbies or interests or health concerns. Absolutely as ignorant as thinking black people are criminals.

On a second thought this misinformation could also affect a trans masc person. I doubt it would, they are more vulnerable and hence would probably try to cross-check info... Or even rely on community support. In many cases, getting an actual testosterone prescription from a medical doctor is even possible.
- While I have great sympathy for trans people struggling in a world that doesn't want to accept them or get them care they need, I also need to push back that they are in way victimized by this prank.
  I don't care who or what you are, if you're stupid enough to fall for shit like this without spending 30 goddamn seconds googling for accuracy, you're kinda just another dumb fuck. If you're trans or looking for any solutions for gender-affirming care (yes, straight cis dudes trying to bulk up are also doing gender-affirming care) then it's kind of on you to read up a LITTLE about how hormones work and how to manage them.
  
  30 seconds googling for accuracy? Is that how long it takes to verify disinformation? What if you come across a study funded by big onion that says the same thing? How do you know you're not being mislead on a higher level? You skim an ncbi article for 30 seconds and think you know right from wrong?
- As a trans person, you don't trust info that doesn't come from the trans community.
  
  As a trans person, community info is a mixed bag. Trust but verify and keep your bs detectors up. Also food won't impact your sex hormone levels sufficiently unless it's something like an herbal medicine that just happens to also be eaten for fun.
  
  If there's one thing children are known for, it's checking their sources and being tied into larger minority communities
- You talk about trans people as if they are removed
  
  But how can cishet middle-class white liberals feel good about themselves if they're not treating people of different class or ethnicity like helpless babies? Think of the people thinking of the children!
- Have i met trans people dumb enough to fall for this? Yes. Have I met trans people dumb enough to fall for this for longer than the length of time that it tends to take to get your first hormone prescription? If so I really hope that means it's gotten faster since I started.
  You start feeling it by a month.
  That said, can I imagine trans guys who eat a ton of raw onions while on T? Yeah, absolutely
