That onion has clearly sprouted a lot, so perhaps it's a seed onion? It's not uncommon to buy small seed onions and plant them so they'll get bigger (although I personally don't see the point, and would grow small bunching onions instead). In this case it's probably just an old onion that sat in a bag too long and sprouted, so they decided to plant it.

- tdeck 5y agoAre we looking at the same photos here? It's clearly not a green onion. It has a large round bulb on the bottom that's more than two inches wide. Green onions / scallions do not look like that. You can see that in the very image you just linked.
