Onion gum makes your mouth taste like onions

Did I tell you I ran into Eric at the Basquiat show?  I was just looking around, listening to Martha Velez, and there, ten feet away, was my boy.  We were supposed to meet at the Half King (a bar) half an hour later, but we made the best of an unexpected situation and left the gallery immediately.

Eric's favorite painting from the show is Onion Gum ...
