Who’d a thunk it?

Pretend this is white & not yellow!!

love this idea (saw it on Rachael Ray)! Did you know that you can use a regular white onion (peeled and sliced in half), to treat a burn!
No more buying expensive aloe vera gel (or the cheapy stuff) – just keep an onion on hand!
So here’s how to use an onion to treat a burn:

  • Use a freshly cut onion and squeeze the juices onto the burn
  • Use the onion as soon as you cut it – otherwise it loses its’ healing properties
  • Keep it on the burn for as long as you need – until you feel the pain decreasing or going away

Only use this for first or second degree burns. Do not try this for third degree burns as those require medical attention!
