 With the introduction of the new northern variety, we are thankfully freed 
 from these overpriced vegetables in the market place should we choose to 
grow 
 them. ;-) Personally, I try to get the Sweet Spanish ones. They have far 
more 
 depth of flavor than Vidallias.

Truth is, Ras, that there IS something in the soil in the area that makes the 
Vidalia taste milder and sweeter than onions grown elsewhere.  Vidalia onions 
are simply Bermuda onions grown in the area around Vidalia Georgia.  Cuttings 
taken from authentic Vidalia onions and grown elsewhere just don't taste the 
same at all.  Common Bermuda onions planted in the area by anyone do have the 
distinctive Vidalia taste.  I've tried both planting Vidalia onions 
elsewhere, and planting Bermudas in the Vidalia area.
