minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 months agoThey go by different names in different regions as well. Here in Utah, they’re called Smith’s. Where I grew up in the PNW, they were called Fred Meyer. The name Kroger seems to be more of a midwest/east coast name for them.
minus-squareShawdow194@kbin.runlinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down4·6 months agoTry ‘Walla walla’ or red onions I never use white onions when cooking 🤢
minus-squarePsythik@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up9·6 months agoRed onions are definitely not sweet and they definitely taste oniony.
minus-squareRBWells@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·6 months agoPungent onions, cooked, are much sweeter and more flavorful than sweet onions cooked. Sweet onions are fantastic raw, but should be called Mild Onions instead. White onion for cooking, sweet onion for raw, red onion splits the difference, but red onion quick pickle is better than any other onion pickles.

So why do they foam them then?
To make jams and other condiments.
