What a disappointment. Had I read the reviews beforehand, I would not have attempted these. Corn flakes slid ight off the egg-dipped onions. Did anyone make these successfully? What's the secret ?

Dissapointed. The crumbs did not stick well. I used fine bread crumbs, because of the previous review. Tastless, boring.

Very disappointing. After dipping the first few, the egg mixture and coating no longer stuck to the onion. Of those that actually worked, the taste of corn flakes was overwhelming. All 5 of us thought they were not worth the time.
