Green onion is a common food in our life. It is often used as seasoning and sometimes used to make some delicious food. But can green onions and honey be eaten together? Can they have dinner together?

As for green onions and honey, there have been rumors that they can't be eaten together. As for the reason, the organic acids in honey will react with sulfur-containing compounds in green onions to produce substances harmful to the body, which may lead to diarrhea and affect health.

The main components of honey are glucose and fructose, in addition to trace elements, minerals, vitamins, active enzymes and trace organic acids. In addition to sulfur compounds, green onions also contain carbohydrates, dietary fiber and other substances. From the analysis of nutritional components, there is no conflict between other substances except rumors.

However, organic acids and sulfur-containing compounds are not simple reactions, and need catalysts and suitable conditions. People's intestines and stomach can't provide favorable conditions, and other substances in honey and green onions don't have catalysts, so this kind of reaction basically won't happen. What's more, there are few organic acids in honey, and even if there is a reaction, it will not have any adverse effects on the body, so honey can be eaten with green onions.

It's just that honey tastes sweet and green onions taste spicy. They are extremes of two tastes. If you eat together, many people may not accept the taste. Therefore, Tian Fengmu reminds everyone that people who can't accept this taste, it is best to eat separately, and it is also good to drink a cup of honey water after eating green onions.
