Trivia

Contrary to speculation, the item is not a reference to the running gag from Ashens, a popular reviewer of cheap electronics; and is in named purely based on the fact onions can cause you to cry.
- In Edmund McMillen's response: "To those asking: I have no idea what ashens is, the sad onion came about because onions make you cry.."^{[citation needed]}
The Sad Onion was the first item made by Edmund for The Binding of Isaac.
