Hi All, My mother made us eat vicks, YUCK ! My grandmother took raw onions and put them in our socks at bed time, when we woke up they looked like they were cooked. Betty
Betty, Sounds terrible. At least the onions on the stove tasted so good. Couldn't really taste the kerosene.

My mother put the onions on the soles of our feet and on our chests when we had a fever. It was supposed to draw it out. LOL When I was a year I got pneumonia and had to go to the hospital. When the doctor saw the onions he asked how they knew I was done.
