Onions
I hate cutting up onions. I always cry - the chemicals causes my eyes to tear up BIG time. Some tricks as to how to avoid those pesky tears:

This works: Take an onion, cut off the top, place it on your head. Continue to cut the onion. Try not to drop the top. And you will have no tears. It works, I swear it! Because I am EXTREMELY sensitive to onions, but when I do this trick, I don't have much of a problem! :D
