I have my nephew here talking onions, he is the food chemist and heads the RnD department, I am turning it over to him, and he is a SS guy.
All onions have the same amount of sugar within. Some onions taste less sweet because they also have a certain amount of sulfur compounds that are essentially equivalent to sulfuric acid (crying eyes when cutting onions). The famous Vidalia and Walla Walla onions come from geographic regions where the soil is very low in sulfur, so they taste sweet... Once cooked, all onions gas off their sulfur and will taste equally sweet.
From the other Bob B, me, I told you so, my nephew the food chemist, and runs the RnD department that supplies Burger King and McDonalds with all there FF and Onion Rings in the Mid West and many other users, Frito Lay product's, ect

Greenie, Grayling, SS stand alone BS and BS SPT, jointer and belt sander, 3 Ers with Speed Changers. I think those 3 cover my ER needs, and space for them.

Re: Vidalia Onions are in the stores
Hooper is famous in the state for their tomatoes. We have actually only been an incorporated town for about 10 years. The tomatoes are not shipped anywhere but they are great in season. It's the soil and the climate.ERLover wrote:I have my nephew here talking onions, he is the food chemist and heads the RnD department, I am turning it over to him, and he is a SS guy.

They also grow a lot of onions out here. In the fall when they turn the onions over in the field to dry you can smell the onions when you drive buy on the road.
