the local producers of Vidallias while they still had a monopoly on them.
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.
