- aspaceman 6y agoLook into Walla Walla and Vidalia onions. They don't keep as long as the average onion, but some people with a sensitive palatte use Vidalias in place of yellow or white.
- nischalsamji 6y agoTotally tangential.. But as you mentioned Vidalia onions, do check this post out - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19728132 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19728132
- DoreenMichele 6y agoNot tangential at all. Actually directly answers the question, above. Had you not posted it, I likely would have. From the article: They’re classified as a sweet onion, and because of their mild flavor (they don’t make your eyes tear up), some folks can eat them like an apple. Most of my customers do.
- User23 6y agoI grew up hearing stories of the long lost Amelia Bedilia onion that you’d eat like an apple. As the story goes that variety was lost.
- poulsbohemian 6y agoSitting here in Walla Walla, I approve this message. Our onions are delicious. There's a reason the "sexy onion" on Facebook recently was a Walla Walla Sweet.
