Did you know that in Ancient Egypt, a spherical multi-layered onion was considered as a model for the structure of the universe?

But let's go back to our days and find out why this vegetable is used by modern people.

It turns out that many housewives have found uses for onions not only in cooking.

For example, they use an onion to clean off food residue from an electric grill. All you need to do is just skewer it on a fork and start cleaning the panels while they are still hot.

Another unusual life hack is that onions can remove rust from objects – as in the previous case, you need to rub the rusty surface with half of the vegetable. True, you will have to put in quite a lot of effort.
