They don't even give you onion breath real bad..killer on almost anything. |

Hello, Mopar
Yep, we *love* Vadallia onions. They may well be the same onion; I don't know. However, they have to be grown in a very specific area. There are some farmers mad as heck that live adjacent to a farm that grows Vadallias, but if they grow 'em, they can't sell them as Vadallias as it wasn't grown in the "approved" area (read - control output to keep price higher). They are really good. I've found sometimes they can be a bit strong (likely growing conditions), but usually they are very mild. I love cutting a *big* slab of Vadallia to put on a hamburg. Yummy!

I've had a few bitter ones, but mostly when they are old. .29 cents a pound for really big sweet ones right now..killer. It won't last long tho. I've made onion/tomato sandwiches with them, no meat...great! |

How to Grow Vidalia Onions Uunfortunately you can't... that is unless you live in the special Vidalia Georgia region. The onions are actually your standard Yellow Granex variety that you can buy at your local garden center. The secret to the sweet Vidalia Onions is that they are grown in soil that can only be found in the unique region of Vidalia Georgia. The soil has a very unique blend of nutrients that give the onions their sweetness. Whatever there Mr. Garden Master, but if the ohio department of agriculture, and the USDA says these ohio grown onions are Vidalias, I'll believe them over you, they have more experiance and education in the field than you do. Plus if you notice the site you listed, it's a COMMERCIAL site, they have interest in making people think they are the only source of Vidalias. That would be the same as saying a Rose isn't a Rose unless it is raised in Rose Texas (or where ever there is a town named rose).

kill for a garlic onion bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon though. Oh and I got my steaming cup of Jamaica Blue Mt coffee ------------------------------------- You're speaking my language loud and clear.........the Jamaican crop was absolutely lousy two years ago and I went to the Ethiopian Harrar (a close runner up, in addition to a distinct Arabica Hawaiian bean offered by Gevalia),,,,did the Blue Mountain Crop rebound? Sometimes they get two growing seasons per year. I couldn't justify the price for an inferior bean that is supposed to set the standard,,we drank Blue Mountain for years and until it changed two years ago due to a poor crop year..,,,,I haven't tried this year's crop yet,.........nothing like world class whole bean from a press out of a ceramic mug.

Well, This years crop was good, and there is a bean that comes from the next mountain over that is damn near as good. The local coffee shop orders the whole beans for me, and I grind them fresh for each pot. heck I love the smell of fresh ground beans as much as I love drinking the fifnal product. |

Don't get all huffy and puffy when someone corrects you, take it like a man and either show you are right or accept you are wrong. sorry to make you feel so small. Ok let me correct myself, Vidalias are gorn in GA fine, but it is a spanish onion, as ar the Maui, and other variety, and those (spanish)are grown everywhere, just like apples, granny smith apples are grown in ohio, indiana, michigan, just like red Delicious are grown all over. So you are correct "Vidalias" are only grown in the Vidalia area, but spanish onions, which is what "Vidalias" are, are grown everywhere including hawaii. And having been a chef for many years, I have worked with every variety you can imagine, and have sampled them all, and the ones Tracy grows here locally are just as good as the "Vidalias" . |

Mail order has yielded me the best bean, but you really pay for it. What is the going price this year for the Blue Mountain? I think it was around 42 bucks per pound before the bad crop. I can imagine what it went to in the following year. ------- You might try Gevalia http://www.gevalia.com/gevalia/catal..._ADDED =false I can ask the local store for their suppliers information also From Gevalia it is $24.95 for 8 oz whole beans so $49.90 for a pound I buy alot of coffee from Gevalia.

And he isstill wrong but that is ok for you. now if it was me or frank or someone who made an inncorrect statement you and your sock puppets would be all over it. Face the facts Keith made 2 wrong statements, vidalia onions are not grown in Ohio, and they are not spanish onions they are Yellow Granex. Randy now suck the back end of me balls. talk about a troll you are the troll, your post had nothing to do except inflame. so troll this you stupid ****ing pill infested assclown. http://w3.gwis.com/~ack/Onion.html http://plantsdatabase.com/search.php...&submit=Search If you'll notice, the specific name for the Vidalia onion is Allium Cepa, and if you'll notice that just hapens to be the specif name of the spanish onion as well. Like all plants and animals different types have different names. The only difference between the Vidalia, the Walla Walls, the Maui, and even the Yellow Granex are all the same, so in a way I was right, the breed of onion ws the same, and he grows them here, the bulbs he planted were from GA the "Vidalia" but they are grown here in NW Ohio. So yes you were correct, Vidalia is the name for those grown in that region, same as the Walla Walla is named for that area, as is the Maui named for that area, but they are all the same species as the Spanish onion. So I was correct as well. Have a nice day. 73 de Keith -- KC8TCQ Know thyself. If you need help, call the C.I.A. |

Keith,If you'll notice LOL that Allium Cepa is the species name of onions which a spanish onion and a yellow granex both belong to. One is not born from the other. The Onion Plant Family: Liliaceae Species: Allium cepa. " Allium cepa is the botanical name for the humble bulb onion. Like all plants and animals different types have different names. The only difference between the Vidalia, the Walla Walls, the Maui, and even the Yellow Granex are all the same, so in a way I was right, No Keith you are not correct at all not even sorta close, yellow granex and spanish are 2 distinct onions, one does not come from the other. Read below from web page "Varieties Both fresh and storage onions come in yellow, red and white colors. This is significant because colored onions have a chemical in their scales, phenol, that inhibits smudge and neck rot. Sizes can vary from 1/8 inch pearl onions to 6 pound giants. Bulb shape varies widely. The botanist Henry Jones created nine bulb shape classifications: globe, flattened globe, high-globe, spindle, Spanish, flat, thick-flat, Granex and top. There are hundreds of onion types: yellow, white, red, and even brown storage onions; specialty sweet onions like Maui, Vidalia, Walla Walla, Arizona, and Texas Sweets; spanish onions, boiling onions, pearl onions and creaming onions. Everyone has their favorites. " the breed of onion ws the same, and he grows them here, the bulbs he planted were from GA the "Vidalia" but they are grown here in NW Ohio. So yes you were correct, Vidalia is the name for those grown in that region, same as the Walla Walla is named for that area, as is the Maui named for that area, but they are all the same species as the Spanish onion. So I was correct as well. Keith you are 100% wrong, spanish onion is nothing but another variety of onion, yellow granex which the vidallia is, they are seperate and different than spanish onion which are storage onions while yellow granex are more a fresh onion. "Spanish Onions are a large yellow storage onion, as round as a globe. They usually have a slightly higher water content, and so generally are less hot, sweeter, somewhat crisper and more perishable than the storage onion. Have a nice day. 73 de Keith Usually do. just like Canine is the family, and is broken into the various species i.e. Doberman, German Shepard, Irish Setter, ect. The The Onion Plant Family: Liliaceae BTW it is actually Alliaceae Species: Allium cepa. Now go to that site I listed, look at every one of them, it distinctly differentiates the different species of onions with different names. the Allium Cepa, is a "breed" of Alliaceae,just like a rottwieler is a breed of canine. Family: Alliaceae Genus: Allium (AL-ee-um) (Info) Species: cepa (KEP-uh) (Info) Cultivar: Sweet Vidalia comments on the vidalia from this website "On May 2, 2004, Farmerdill wrote: A 1985 hybrid yellow granex type from K-F seeds, now offered by Sunseeds.

In case you were not aware, I happen to live smack dab in the middle of agricultural country, there are entire farms here dedicated to growing fresh produce for Campbells Soup, Lachoy, Con-Agra. These farmers are friends, and family of mine, I started working on the farms when I was barely even a teenager, including planting, harvesting, and driving the procudeto market.

How to Grow Vidalia Onions Uunfortunately you can't... that is unless you live in the special Vidalia Georgia region. The onions are actually your standard Yellow Granex variety that you can buy at your local garden center. The secret to the sweet Vidalia Onions is that they are grown in soil that can only be found in the unique region of Vidalia Georgia. The soil has a very unique blend of nutrients that give the onions their sweetness. Whatever there Mr. Garden Master, but if the ohio department of agriculture, and the USDA says these ohio grown onions are Vidalias, I'll believe them over you, they have more experiance and education in the field than you do. Post a link then that shows where ohio agriculture calls them Vidalia onions, they are simply yellow granex onions they are not vidalias. Don't get all huffy and puffy when someone corrects you, take it like a man and either show you are right or accept you are wrong. sorry to make you feel so small. Ok let me correct myself, Vidalias are gorn in GA fine, but it is a spanish onion, as ar the Maui, and other variety, and those (spanish)are grown everywhere, just like apples, granny smith apples are grown in ohio, indiana, michigan, just like red Delicious are grown all over. So you are correct "Vidalias" are only grown in the Vidalia area, but spanish onions, which is what "Vidalias" are, are grown everywhere including hawaii. And having been a chef for many years, I have worked with every variety you can imagine, and have sampled them all, and the ones Tracy grows here locally are just as good as the "Vidalias" . Keith, you know he'll argue just for the sake of arguing. Most of us that are sane here understand what you mean. You may as well let it go, and let the troll beat his head against the bridge. Sorry Randy Crackhead Chapman, you understood he was wrong? And he isstill wrong but that is ok for you. now if it was me or frank or someone who made an inncorrect statement you and your sock puppets would be all over it. Face the facts Keith made 2 wrong statements, vidalia onions are not grown in Ohio, and they are not spanish onions they are Yellow Granex. Randy now suck the back end of me balls. talk about a troll you are the troll, your post had nothing to do except inflame. so troll this you stupid ****ing pill infested assclown. http://w3.gwis.com/~ack/Onion.html http://plantsdatabase.com/search.php...&submit=Search If you'll notice, the specific name for the Vidalia onion is Allium Cepa, and if you'll notice that just hapens to be the specif name of the spanish onion as well.

Don't bother with him Keith, he just wants to argue, that's all he ever does here.
