Ever tried Texas 1015? I've read that Vidalia onions are Texas onions grown
in more favorable soil.

I'd have to ask my wife if she's familiar with 1015's. Man..talk about
an onion you could eat like an apple..those Vidalia's are the bomb!

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!

Best regards from Rochester, NY
Jim

Oh great..the same people that fix the utility prices are gouging me
on my onions now. What's next?

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!

Red win vinegar, season throw on BBQ
