retired goggle usage


if you're a swimmer, you've likely gone through a pair of goggles or two in your lifetime, but did you ever wonder what to do with your when you could no longer wear them for practice? well, wonder no more. as my housemate drake is demonstrating in the picture, goggles can be worn in the kitchen to prevent one from crying while cutting onions. in fact, goggles work so well, that drake felt no eye irritation at all during a single seven onion cutting bout this afternoon. just a warning though: wearing goggles in the kitchen does not alleviate fogging issues. after about 10 minutes in a hot kitchen, the goggles will begin to fog and large condensation droplets may form. we have yet to work out the best fog prevention mechanism for dry land use of goggles, but we'll keep you posted. in the meantime, put those old goggles to use and enjoy your next onion cutting session tear-free!
