There is nothing specifically within Buddhism that says that you shouldn't eat onions or garlic. However, within Indian religions as a whole, there is an idea that eating onions and garlic can heighten desire and sexual energy. So, some monastic traditions will not eat these foods. A modern example is a Hindu tradition, the Hare Krishnas.
