Tear-Triggering Notebooks

This Writing Notebook Comes With Onion Paper to Get the Tears Flowing

This bizarre writing notebook design by Japanese brand Magnus Ferreus helps authors really get their emotions out on the page with the addition of onion paper. This cleverly designed paper releases the same compounds found in onions so you can really let your walls down and shed a tear or two while you write.

It's a well-known fact that chopping onions in the kitchen is a surefire way to make you weep. That's because when an onion is sliced it creates sulfuric acids that make your eye water and tear up. This Onion Notebook comes with pages embedded with the same acids that will instantly make you shed a tear or two while you write. These writing notebooks are set to go on sale in Japan in the near future with several ads already backing the tear-jerking product.
