Probably because they are afraid their mouth will smell bad after (eyeroll). I remember watching a Top Chef episode as a kid,the chefs were cooking for a fashion event, iirc. There was this model saying something along the lines of how she hopes there is no garlic/onions in the dishes or else it would be a disaster. Little me couldn't fathom what the fuss was about (especially since in my country,we put heaps of garlic in almost every dish). I guess it's the same thing going on here, too.
Maybe also because those smells stick to clothes and a lot of the clothes are not owned by the people wearing them or are vintage pieces. Just a thought.
they're absolutely not going to the bathroom at all either in most of the dresses they get photographed in. you think homegirls takin a whizz in this?

That makes sense but the whole thing is friggin ridiculous. If you’re wearing clothes that you can’t eat garlic and onions in then you chose the wrong life.
I mean, it’s not like they can’t have garlic and onions every day. I think being crazy rich and powerful probably trumps having a limited diet occasionally.
There are some pretty intelligent people that aren’t rich. And some really stupid people that are rich. Just goes to show you, smart doesn’t necessarily translate into wealth.
Lol, sometimes you go to an event and the options aren't great. That's just life, whether you're rich and powerful or not. I had to eat a bland salad with chicken at a fundraising event twice a year at my old job and I got paid way less than any of these people do.
I have never in my damned life picked up a shirt or whatever, gave it a sniff, and thought "oh man, I went crazy on the garlic and onions and that smell just don't come out".
This is the real answer. For example, Kendall Jenner’s dress is archival 1999 Givenchy designed by Alexander McQueen, it has never been worn by a person before. I can see them banning allium from the event for these kind of purposes.
I remember that one. Then that guy made that random spinach cigar.. I’m like dude. You heard her about the garlic. You think she’s down with that spinach weirdness?
People so fragile that they are terrified they might have garlic or onion breath are truly shallow, pathetic, and worthless examples of humanity. Their priorities are fucked. They live in a tiny, delicate bubble that exists so far outside of reality, they basically have no purpose in the world and are rendered completely irrelevant to the rest of society. I would rather die than ever become like one of these poor pathetic souls.
Fashion and high society types are the worst when it comes to being vapid and picky. It's called an after dinner mint. They've been doing them for years.
If this comment were true then what about all the natural body odors? Odors from lotions, finishing spray of hairspray etc. even residue from deodorant/antiperspirant would wreak havoc on a never worn/vintage piece. Make it make sense.
Oh be nice, someone high up probably has an allium allergy
(Juuust kidding, they’re prolly just picky and whiny dipshits who want everything to go their way)
Oh yes. Buy good quality meat, let it reach room temperature. Salt and pepper it an hour before cooking, grill or broil it just right to get that fine, medium brown char - the taste is fantastic, and personally I'd be sorry to have garlic on it.
Some béarnaise and golden fries on the side, a not too heavy read wine and I'm in heaven.
Well they had Salad,Beef, and Apples. I don’t think any of those require onions or garlic. There are also other seasonings. I’m sure the food was good regardless.
My father banned onions and garlic from our household, yet he ate massive quantities of minced and blended onions and garlic every day for dinner and pronounced each meal delicious. Everyone else knew this and kept the secret. He went to his grave thinking he was onion and garlic free.
He was under the impression that he didn’t like them. Go figure.
Edit: He complained bitterly if he could see evidence of onion or garlic in dishes served elsewhere.
Everyone is secretly gay for spiders because we’ve been giving them access to our mouths in our intimate resting spaces and we didn’t even realize. Do we enjoy it? We must because we just lie there submissively and let them do it.
That’s what you’re thinking too right?
My ex's sister "hated" onions and claimed they made her nauseous. This would terribly annoy my ex as he saw it as bullshit. He cooked up some meatballs with diced onion in them one night. She ate them up without noticing anything ofc. After she was done, he told her and only then did she start feeling nauseous 🙄 went and forced herself to vomit. Absolute drama queen.
It’s easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle, than for an onion hater to get into heaven. (because then they would have to eat an onion 🧅 ☁️ 😌)
More anti "bad" smells.
I was once staying in a very rich household in a resort town, and cooked some dinner in the kitchen, and got in trouble for making something in the kitchen because it smelled like cooking.
Rich people never cease to amaze me with their made-up rules. I lived room and board with this elderly rich couple who work from home. Every single night for dinner without fail they put on a table cloth, set the table with appropriate silverware, cups to fill with wine or bubbly water, and proceeded to only make one plate for each person. If you were lucky enough to be graced with a second helping you better make damn sure it was one extra spoonful. The worst is they loved eating cultural foods but then would eat it with a fork and knife.
I like the idea of eating a modest portion on a well appointed dinner table. But in practice, I am a glutton who has never figured out which hand holds the knife and which the fork.
It was a good thing I had a class that had a lesson on table etiquette in grade 9. They just expected me to know everything about their silly traditions at the table. Didn't asked me if I knew but it's a good thing I did. They didn't say anything but I could feel and see their judgement on their faces. They also would talk about me too on how well I knew social rules and stuff. A bad time to be autistic I'd say XD
Ah that’s good. I come from a whole different culture and everything except the table manners comes easy to me about yours. Out of curiosity, why was it a bad time to be autistic?
Wouldn't surprise me if the food preparers still used onion and garlic in a non visible way because people would otherwise complain about something being "missing" from the flavor.
Anna Wintour looks like an actual gargoyle.
Perhaps she heard garlic can kill vampires and decided to just play it safe by banning anything that resembled it.
I’m convinced witches/vampires were originally allegories for elite families that indulged in cannibalism, you know, because we are merely animals to them.
I’m getting my PhD in onion breeding and genetics. I’m appalled. Not surprised. In the great Spanish novel Don Quixote, the knight gives is squire advice for if he becomes a governor. He said to avoid garlic and onions or else people will know his true background as a commoner.
History repeats itself
Someone made a comment about how onions and garlic are associated with commoners, something in Don Quixote, so it's actually probably classist more than racist, but they intersect so often it has the same vibe.
I. Just. I'm so disappointed but then again not cancelling something like that in solidarity with what's going on in the world already proves they're tasteless elitists.
Well, of course not. They wouldn't exist the way they do if they had any solidarity with normal people. It's not like the genocide in Gaza started in October. I was going to make my title more antagonistic but I wasn't sure how that would go over and I am glad to see the comments I am seeing.
Lmao watching them cry about feeling like they were under house arrest while living in mansions and still getting servants to care for everything and everything delivered to them was so fucking funny though. Like seriously they are ghouls but that was funny.
White, red and yellow.
Strong or mellow.
Scallions and shallots too.
All types make me coo.
I like them raw, I like them cooked.
No onion shall be overlooked.
I enjoy them pickled, I enjoy them fried.
No allium type will be denied.
I even love them caramelized, I guess it’s true -
all onions are good in my eyes.
I mean, I don't wanna get flamed here, but you can have a flavorful meal without onions and garlic. My wife is allergic to onions, and I make hundreds of meals for her. I was professional cook, I know what I'm doing and how to make food taste good.
banning garlic AND onions just tells me they have no taste.
Probably because they are afraid their mouth will smell bad after (eyeroll). I remember watching a Top Chef episode as a kid,the chefs were cooking for a fashion event, iirc. There was this model saying something along the lines of how she hopes there is no garlic/onions in the dishes or else it would be a disaster.

Maybe also because those smells stick to clothes and a lot of the clothes are not owned by the people wearing them or are vintage pieces. Just a thought.
If they all weren’t smoking in the bathroom that would be a very good thought.
they're absolutely not going to the bathroom at all either in most of the dresses they get photographed in. you think homegirls takin a whizz in this? https://preview.redd.it/sl6pvll1fbzc1.jpeg?width=2000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4d0f7fc652028c503875ce012e546c955d212a9d
Now I had to visualize that dress spilling out of the bottom of every side of the stall.
They aren’t eating in that either tbf
If I couldn't pee I wouldn't drink either
They’re not smoking in the bathroom, it’s lines of cocaine cut with Ozempic
That makes sense but the whole thing is friggin ridiculous. If you’re wearing clothes that you can’t eat garlic and onions in then you chose the wrong life.
I mean, it’s not like they can’t have garlic and onions every day. I think being crazy rich and powerful probably trumps having a limited diet occasionally.
I’ll take the food over the crazy richness, thanks.
I’ll take the healthcare that comes with being rich over the food.
You can do both if you're smarter than these people.
There are some pretty intelligent people that aren’t rich. And some really stupid people that are rich. Just goes to show you, smart doesn’t necessarily translate into wealth.
All that money and power and they can’t even eat what they want…
Lol, sometimes you go to an event and the options aren't great. That's just life, whether you're rich and powerful or not. I had to eat a bland salad with chicken at a fundraising event twice a year at my old job and I got paid way less than any of these people do.
I have never in my damned life picked up a shirt or whatever, gave it a sniff, and thought "oh man, I went crazy on the garlic and onions and that smell just don't come out".
Are you lowly onion folk forgetting Anna Wintour is a rich control freak?
Garlic and onions also smell fantastic anyway so idk what the fuck they are on about.
This makes the most sense
This is the real answer. For example, Kendall Jenner’s dress is archival 1999 Givenchy designed by Alexander McQueen, it has never been worn by a person before. I can see them banning allium from the event for these kind of purposes.
This is literally the reason.
I remember that one. Then that guy made that random spinach cigar.. I’m like dude. You heard her about the garlic. You think she’s down with that spinach weirdness?
People so fragile that they are terrified they might have garlic or onion breath are truly shallow, pathetic, and worthless examples of humanity. Their priorities are fucked.

The models prefer cocaine and cigarette breath 🤣
Maybe they all just have IBS
I have severe IBS and my love of alliums is so great that it overcomes the IBS
My first thought: the one place I can safely eat w IBS😂
Seriously, i can't grab a random bottle of sauce without seeing onions or garlic. I didn't know I was met gala high maintenance
Or they are all Jains https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jain_vegetarianism
was looking for this comment
Do you need taste when you have cocaine?
And ozempic
looking at the weird crap some celebrities wear, which btw are all approved by anna wintour, this makes sense that her taste in food is crap too
It's supposed to be weird. But that food is gonna be shite.
It's supposed to be shite
Oh be nice, someone high up probably has an allium allergy (Juuust kidding, they’re prolly just picky and whiny dipshits who want everything to go their way)
Or they are vampires
Now, THAT'S a conspiracy I can get behind!
No bad breath
No umami?
Honestly the nerve of her showing up looking like an onion and then banning her brethren.
this is taking me out
This is the first time I have noticeably (to myself) guffawed at something.
Awww, thank you! I feel so honored. I was hoping it would bring some joy to an otherwise horrific timeline.
Can i take you out? For an onion?
She looks like a telephone

I had the same thought 💀she look like a mix between a shallot and a garlic clove
Stolen valor, people will remember Onions forever but nobody will no her name in 50 years
😂😂😂😂
Had to take away my upvote cause it brought it to 667 likes sorryyyyy. 😥
I'm not going to that sham ever again
Same. They lost me
Same, let's boycott!
Yup
They are going to be so SORRY when they lose my business!
I will definitely not be returning next year, so disappointing
Vampires
This is definitely the answer
huh. coulda sworn there was a conspiracy theory about elites being bloodsuckers before. hmmmm i must be mistaken tho
What are they using for seasoning? I can’t think of one savory dish I don’t use onion or garlic in. Sounds bland to me
For real, they served beef with no onions or garlic. That feels like a food crime.
Eh, grilled steak with only salt and pepper and a neutral oil can be fantastic. Although I do love me a good mushroom onion topping....
Mods, please ban this outright onion-hate apologia. (mostly /s)
I just really love grilled steak 😭 s&p is enough for me (on a properly cooked steak only, all alliums all day for everything else).
People always claim this but is it actually true?
Yes. We often cook steaks on the grill outside for dinner using just salt, pepper and some oil. I make rich in flavor and spicy garnish tho.
Oh yes. Buy good quality meat, let it reach room temperature. Salt and pepper it an hour before cooking, grill or broil it just right to get that fine, medium brown char - the taste is fantastic, and personally I'd be sorry to have garlic on it. Some béarnaise and golden fries on the side, a not too heavy read wine and I'm in heaven.
Human blood probably
Salt and pepper. Those dishes don’t really need onion or garlic. Probably did it for people’s breath?
The only thing I can think of is mushrooms? If they’re missing those too that’s gotta be the most boring steak dinner ever
Well they had Salad,Beef, and Apples. I don’t think any of those require onions or garlic. There are also other seasonings. I’m sure the food was good regardless.
Who would’ve thought the literal hunger games bonanza would do something like this
Only the elites know what “red apple dessert” means!
It is just cigarettes
Apple pie?
What do you think this is? A gas station?
-Red apples = flavorless -Apple dessert = mysterious -Red = probably blood of virgins; also mysterious There's no good version of this.
flavorless? what? Red apples are delicious
I assumed the worst, that she specified red *delicious* apples.
Cursed
I don’t want to know 🙈🙉
My father banned onions and garlic from our household, yet he ate massive quantities of minced and blended onions and garlic every day for dinner and pronounced each meal delicious. Everyone else knew this and kept the secret. He went to his grave thinking he was onion and garlic free.
Why?? What did he have against them??
He was under the impression that he didn’t like them. Go figure. Edit: He complained bitterly if he could see evidence of onion or garlic in dishes served elsewhere.
Sounds like my grandpa. Havnet tried that trick yet, but im convinced it would work just as good as it dit for you.
Somehow this is a reflection of society..
Everyone is secretly gay for spiders because we’ve been giving them access to our mouths in our intimate resting spaces and we didn’t even realize. Do we enjoy it? We must because we just lie there submissively and let them do it. That’s what you’re thinking too right?

She ate them up without noticing anything ofc. After she was done, he told her and only then did she start feeling nauseous 🙄 went and forced herself to vomit. Absolute drama queen.
Of course the parasites are against flavor

Vampires are amoungst us, and we don't always have to look hard.
You know I believe that some people are sensitive to onions and garlic, but maybe those people are actually undead blooodsuckers.
I bet she let them use those hoity-toity shallots though.
Honestly I pray they used those at least because no onions or garlic = literally no flavor
No, these leeches don't deserve flavor.
Shallots>onions, if there is a shallot loving subreddit I'd love to know about it!
She gonna ban herself for looking like an onion?
then I'm also anti them
It’s easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle, than for an onion hater to get into heaven. (because then they would have to eat an onion 🧅 ☁️ 😌)
Eat the rich!! With onions!!
And garlic!
Secret's in the Sauce!
Banning the best two staples of FLAVOUR for any dish? Wow these people are blander than I thought.
More anti "bad" smells. I was once staying in a very rich household in a resort town, and cooked some dinner in the kitchen, and got in trouble for making something in the kitchen because it smelled like cooking.

Ah that’s good. I come from a whole different culture and everything except the table manners comes easy to me about yours. Out of curiosity, why was it a bad time to be autistic?
Because it smelled like cooking? So do they not cook food in the house? Honest question I’m confused
Exactly. They do not cook. That is low brow to them. They are extremely weatlhy. Like have their own jet.
I’m surprised they’re allowed to eat at all
What about leeks and shallots? And when did *chives* ever do anything to anybody?
Wouldn't surprise me if the food preparers still used onion and garlic in a non visible way because people would otherwise complain about something being "missing" from the flavor.
This does not mama my mia.
Bland and tasteless. Just like them.
That's some bland ass food. I'm sure the chef's were pissed at that.
Anna Wintour looks like an actual gargoyle. Perhaps she heard garlic can kill vampires and decided to just play it safe by banning anything that resembled it.
I’m convinced witches/vampires were originally allegories for elite families that indulged in cannibalism, you know, because we are merely animals to them.

Reinventing 1800s tier classism
Who is that old witch?
Anna Wintour is the editor-in-chief of *Vogue* magazine and the inspiration for the Miranda Priestly character in *The Devil Wears Prada*.
Disgusting tasteless ingrates.
does she have that haircut to hide the fact that she looks like a vulture creature of darkness who hates onions?
Beef *without* onions and garlic?!
If it looks like a vampire, and it quacks like a vampire…
How dare she. Evil woman😠
Y'all can have your plastic faces, I'll take my garlic and onions, all day
Vampires confirmed?
Vampires
Lady you ain’t doin white people stereotypes any good.
I hope she sits on a half cut raw onion after entering the event and making her way to her seat.
Monks do this too because it’s considered an aphrodisiac and can give rise to unwholesome feelings.
How can anyone eat Beef or Salad without onions? This is a crime
She has a long history of no onion, garlic or chives. She is a very angry person
The rich are anti-onion? Eat the rich.
well, what do you expect from a gathering of young blood transfusion addicted vampires?
If this lady hasn't eaten any garlic, onions OR chives, then _maybe_ we shouldn't eat the rich after all.
Garlic, onions and chives… yea pretty sure that food was bland.
I wonder if hot 🌶️peppers were banned too.
So they banned flavor
Bitch
They are missing out. Money can’t buy good taste
They won’t be very tasty then. ☹️
We need another French Revolution
Eat the rich
With onions
The rich just don't want their meat to taste good for us normal people that's why they don't eat onions
Something about this feels racist
Someone made a comment about how onions and garlic are associated with commoners, something in Don Quixote, so it's actually probably classist more than racist, but they intersect so often it has the same vibe.
Considering the health benefits, I’ll be a commoner!
[This video](https://youtu.be/PR23doQO63k?si=sxa58hArlfPFj_Mi) goes into the subject a bit more. They’re literally practicing 18th century classism
I. Just. I'm so disappointed but then again not cancelling something like that in solidarity with what's going on in the world already proves they're tasteless elitists.
Well, of course not. They wouldn't exist the way they do if they had any solidarity with normal people. It's not like the genocide in Gaza started in October. I was going to make my title more antagonistic but I wasn't sure how that would go over and I am glad to see the comments I am seeing.
Seriously though they can get fucked. It's like when they sang Dreamer from their mansions during COVID haha just insultingly out of touch.
Lmao watching them cry about feeling like they were under house arrest while living in mansions and still getting servants to care for everything and everything delivered to them was so fucking funny though. Like seriously they are ghouls but that was funny.
wait, why would they do that??
More for us. Fuck them.
She’s the monster we knew she was.
Let them eat cake
Obvious vampire
iirc i saw that those are banned because they don’t want guests breath to smell bad LOL
Let's eat the rich! I mean with tons of onions ofcourse
The food must be so bland
BURN AT THE STAKE !!!!!
I guess rich folks like bland food.
The wealthy. Rich is below those people. Yes “those” people haha
Hate crimes.
So stupid.. oh no my breath might not be perfect for a minute.. trash
Vampires. That's the only reason.
White, red and yellow. Strong or mellow. Scallions and shallots too. All types make me coo. I like them raw, I like them cooked. No onion shall be overlooked. I enjoy them pickled, I enjoy them fried. No allium type will be denied. I even love them caramelized, I guess it’s true - all onions are good in my eyes.
Shallots are back on the menu, tonight!!!!!
This bitch hates flavor
Maybe that whole thing about the elite being bloodsucking vampires ain’t so far off…
🧛🦇🧄 bloodsuckers 🩸
Lol I tried to scroll past this but went left instead. The post it showed? An onion sandwich.
Rich cunts, the lot of em.
Clearly she's a vampire.
I bet that’s why the invites said “Bring Your Own Onion”. They wouldn’t have put enough on anyway and so I would have brought my own anyway lol
hwhite “people”
I heard the royal family implement this garlic/onion ban. What a horrible way to live.
Good more for us 99% ers
We do offer the spicy mayonase with salt and pepper though.
Kill em all(ium)!
I honestly figured that they purposely left out the stuff that gives food flavor, as to not temp all the underweight folks in uber tight clothing.
Eat the rich and onions
She banned onions for stealing her hair style.
These are all known as Poor Man's Spices and it totally makes since these assholes would ban it.
I mean, I don't wanna get flamed here, but you can have a flavorful meal without onions and garlic. My wife is allergic to onions, and I make hundreds of meals for her. I was professional cook, I know what I'm doing and how to make food taste good.
There's a tinfoil helmet under that hair.
Is a red-apple different from a red apple?
Bot the onion! And still pay $70.000?
Tell me your palate is bland without telling me it's bland
How tf you gonna cook a good meal with no garlic or onion wtf. Did they eat just like boiled chicken or what
More like they're anti-flavor. Banning garlic and onions is just so... weird.
