Im loyal to Anerica, so of course not
---

I would not eat that. I would eat a bratwurst however.
---

One thing I absolutely can't stand is trying all sorts of new foods. What I have works, don't fix what isn't broken.

I am so triggered right now

Absolutely, I love having an adventurous palate

I agree.

While I'm open to foods from other cultures, I hate onions. So in this case I would not eat an onion pie.

Pretty sure I have eaten that when I was in Berlin earlier this year.

1) Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a jelly-roll pan or large pizza pan with prepared dough, making sure dough extends up sides of pan.

2) Saute onion in a skillet until translucent and pour cooked onion into a large mixing bowl. Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Drain, chop and add to onion; mix well.

3) Stir in sour cream. Beat eggs enough to break up yolks, then mix in to pie mixture. Add flour to thicken mixture (onions will create a lot of water), then add salt. Mix well and pour mixture into prepared pan. Sprinkle top with caraway seed.

4) Bake in preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until onions start to turn golden brown on top.
Eh, maybe.

No I'm this case. I abhor onions.
---

Of course, but I dont eat eggs or sour cream so
---

Normally yes, but not a huge fan of onion, so I have to pass on this one.

That looks tasty, so I would eat it. One of my favourite places to eat is an East Indian restaurant.

This makes it sound like a giant pierogi, but without any potato. I'd be down for that.

Never in my life did I think so many people would hate onion, the delicious god fruit straight from the ground.
---

I enjoy trying new things and widening my tastes, yes.

Sure, I'd try it once.
---

I will never understand people who don't want to broaden their food horizons

Like a kind of onion heavy quiche type thing. Was okay.
---

I am open to eating food from other cultures

except that pie
---

Id try it, I might not finish it though
---

Looks and sounds amazing tbqh
---

Onions are fucking disgusting, so I wouldn't eat the abomination described in the topic post. I'd rather eat good German food, or good food from any cuisine... you know, the type that doesn't involve pounds of onions.
---

That looks really good

The sensation of biting into an onion feels horrible

so these are the sorts of people who reign over us
---

Six .... pounds?
---

Eh, I'd try it
---

Yes, people who recognize that onions are fucking disgusting. Right-minded people, in short.
---

6 lb of onion = roughly 12 medium sized onions

The pie in the pic seems fine, onion pie doesn't sound that bad, onions can be okay under the right circumstances. TC, if you're trying to find a more off-putting dish or food, you should have gone with balut or durian or bittermelon or something; onion pie is scrub-tier levels of offputtingness.

this isn't intentionally offputting.

No I have limited tastes in food.

As an American I enjoy jamaican beef patties.

Fresh ones....not the bullshit you get at 7/11

The onions are sauteed, so it's not like you're biting into raw onion. They don't have nearly the same texture

what a stupidly loaded poll
where's the "yes i do it all the time but that onion pie is something i wouldn't eat" option

I included an option for this:

No, I would not eat the german onion pie. Denial is not a good look.

I included an option for this:

you gave the poll a bad question with two dishonest answers that don't answer it straight
the question is "are you open to eating other people's food", not "will you eat the onion pie"

That dish is nasty.

I also won't eat rats (but I'll eat cui, nutrias, or armadillos), bats as well as they sometimes carry nasty diseases.
---

I see other recipes include bacon
