Completely stunned, the cooking enthusiast said: ''You're telling me for 40 years I've been slicing onions and been scared I don't cut myself every time, I could've been doing this?
''Ain't no way,''' he chuckled in the video.

One fan exclaimed: ''my life has been so much easier since following you.''
However, not everyone was impressed and will be trying this hack any time soon, with someone saying the slices were too thin.
''Might as well throw it in the food processor with the way the onions come out.''
''Nah that's no good. Could have sliced 3 in that time. And that's gunna make your eyes burn,'' another reckoned.
If you're using onions, chances are you might be making a hearty bowl of spaghetti Bolognese.
But as much as we love this dish, it also comes with another, less welcome guest – stubborn stains ruining all your once clear plastic containers.
Fortunately, one mum and foodie has come to rescue, sharing an easy cleaning hack that will banish the red tomato stains in an instant.
The best part? Not only does it not require vigorous scrubbing but it also costs just 1p to do – so what are you waiting for?
According to Ashley Roark (@ashleyroark5), believed to be from the US, the answer is simple – kitchen roll.
Demonstrating the life-changing trick on TikTok, the mum first placed some paper roll in her plastic container before filling it up with water and a squeeze of washing soap.
Once the secret ingredients were all assembled together, Ashley put the lid on and gave the box a good shake.
A few seconds later, the cleaning enthusiast removed the lid and viewers were stunned by what they saw.
The kitchen roll had absorbed all the stains and the plastic container was as clear as it was on Day 1.
The game-changer of a hack has since taken the social media platform by storm, racking up a whopping 10.5million views and over 450k likes.
But although many tagged their pals to see the trick, others were less than impressed and claimed the paper towel didn't do anything.
''Nahhh. It doesn’t work that easy. I’ve tried,'' wrote one viewer.
Sharing their thoughts, TikTok fans also revealed how they tackle the issue, with one recommending sunlight.
''I just leave them out side and the color takes of. it takes two days but make sure it’s showing light.''
