In our original story about onions, Marek Pruszewicz reported that they are eaten and grown all over the world. China and India grow nearly half of the world's annual production of more than 70 million tonnes. But the top onion-eating nation, measured by the quantity of onions eaten per head of population, is Libya, where - according to the UN - in 2011 each person ate, on average, 33.6kg (or roughly one onion per day).
