My grandmother would tell us the eating onions thing was a holdover from the 
Great Depression. In fact, she would have one meal a week be something that she 
and my grandfather would eat as the endured the Depression. She would prepare 
it then, as she brought it to the kitchen table, she would ceremoniously say, 
“never forget,” crush out her Pall Mall, and join us for supper. Things like 
brown gravy on white bread, navy beans, SOS, celery soup, hot water cornbread 
and milk, her version of Hoover Stew (hot dogs or any other leftover meat with 
stewed tomatoes) among other dishes. 
When my kids were growing up, and my grandmother would come and stay the 
winters with us, she would make one of her never forget meals about once a 
month. Anytime I made the navy beans for her I would include a smoked ham hock, 
and she would say they were good, but they were too gussied up for her with 
that fancy meat in it.

 In OKC look up Tuckers, they have a few locations.
 
 And if you think you're man enough, order the Mother Tucker, its
 multiple layers of meat and grilled onions.

When I met Mrs. Dan’s relatives the week after we were married, we were 
visiting her paternal grandmother in her “house” (using that word loosely, it 
was more of a “cabin” or shack with 2-3 rooms.) Her grandfather, whom I suspect 
knowing what I know now was suffering from senile dementia or Alzheimer’s, was 
walking through the place eating an onion sandwich. I saw him make it in the 
kitchen - he just sliced an onion, put the slices between a couple of slices of 
white bread, and had at it.

No worries about cultural appropriation there. An onion sandwich is not 
something I’ve felt the need to try, despite liking onions.
