If I could vote,(still under 40 posts) I would vote for Vidalia Onions. Here's the strange thing, I can't stand onions raw, but cooked onions are very tasty...go figure.

Red onions. They add that little bit of spice to my sandwich that makes it just a little bit more awesome.

Good to see some love for the Onion. <3 My favorite vegetable by far. I was raised on the white variety so that gets my vote.

I like them all, red my favourite, but also green (spring) onions

Strange to see leek in the list - I never considered them a kind of onion

I probably should have added chives and shallots  for good measure.

I have no particular favorite, though when I'm backpacking the sierra in early summer and hit a meadow full of wild mountain onions, they sure do spice up freeze-dried backpack slop.

Garlic is okay though...

Those sound like they might be ramps.  Do they look anything like this?:

Ramps are an eastern north american vegetable, wild onions grow in the sierra right along sometimes the death camas which looks similar..........

I'm guessing you don't want to eat the death camas. LOL
What are the wild onions of which you speak like?  Similar?

They are close enough that if it does not smell like an onion do not eat it, both are lily like, having bulbs. There is a camas that was a staple in western native American culture.

I really recommend Shallot onion to all fans of onion experience. Very refreshing, pungent taste. 

My all time favourite onion Big smile

Actually I was asking about the edible wild onions you use. LOL

But speaking of the camas, how do you tell them apart?
