The first Flying Onion ever seen was reported to a County Sheriff in Kansas City in 1886. Nobody knows how the Flying Onion came about, but recent studies have shown that the genes of birds have somehow been inserted into the young onion, and it has sprouted wings as it grows. Since the first sighting, there have been millions more reported worldwide. Whole flocks of them have been seen migrating to warmer areas in late Autumn. The Flying Onion is a whole new species, but even the scientists can't tell how the bird genes were inserted into the onion so far back as 1886, since they didn't have the technology to do so in such early days. Many farfetched guesses have been made on how this happened, from birds coming home drunk and trying to have sex with onions, to onions coming home drunk and trying to have sex with birds.
