I'll live until I'm 102, but it won't be from eating raw onions..... My wife says, it's because I'm miserable and people like me live forever. [emoji6]
I've had the Texas 1015's and the Walla Walla ones, they are good, it might be the grocer where I shop, Vidalias, hands down are the best tasting..
Nothing better than a grilled burger, a thick slice of vidalia, dill pickle and a slice of homegrown tomato..
Not to my liking for chili or Spaghetti sauce, i'll stick with the yellow onions for that..
Onions, smunions unless they are red onions they are pretty much all the same to me. About the only way I eat them is chopped on hot dogs or beans or sliced on burgers. The red ones are for Tater salad and garden salad.
If I'm going to eat onions, I want the "bite".
It's getting harder to find plain yellow onions around here unless you buy them by the bag.
Vidalias and red onions are about the only kind you can buy individually.
I think it's a nefarious plot by the Ga. Onion Growers Assoc.
We don't get them up here, at least none that I've seen. We do get Walla Walla's & red onions. What you don't want to eat up here are the yellow onions in the middle of winter, I think they must soak them in gasoline on the barge or something. Strong just isn't the word for it. I look forward to spring, among other reasons, for the sweet onions.
Most nights I'll have a few large slices of Vadalia Onion and Beef-steak Tomatoes along with some crumbled Gorgonzola and Peter Lugar's Sauce. Makes a GREAT salad substitute before your main course.
I have both in my pantry right now and I gotta say the Vidalias are sweeter. Walla Wallas taste almost like a yellow onion to me (I grew my own last year) but they are a LITTLE sweeter than the yellows.
