What is a green onion as opposed to a regular onion?

green onions are also known as scallions, long thin onions.
yummy

OK, here's a question. Recently I had bought a large yellow onion.
It
had begun to sprout some green shoots out the top. I never did get
around
to eating the onion, but it was fascinating to watch the sprouts
grow.
Eventually they looked exactly like scallions, growing out of a
large
onion (which was getting smaller and mushier by the day, as it was
feeding
the scallions/sprouts.

My question: *were* these scallions? Are scallions just the
sprouted
part of an onion, or are they different plants?


IIRC, scallions are just the sprouted part of an onion. MY MIL told
me years ago that you have to bend/break that sprout for the bulb to
grow... dunno if that's really so, I am NOT a gardener or farmer at
all! but makes sense to me


You bend or break the sprout on regular onions to keep them from going
to seed before the onions grow. Otherwise they will shoot up tall and
produce flowers and seeds,

I have had two glasses of wine tonight after having 33 people for a picnic
supper. After reading all of this "darlings" I think I would "Love" two
more. Then, I can fade to black.

You claim to have deleted the entire thread yet you keep adding to it, I'm

I wondered about that, too. But unless you actually *kill* a thread,
deleting it only works for the posts you have received thus far. New ones
that arrive at your server after you deleted the old ones will continue
to appear in your newsreader. And then you have the temptation to read
(and likely respond) all over again. I have to say that having a thread
that appears to call your name over and over would be pretty tempting. I
would have a hard time staying away from reams and reams of posts all
having "Ping Joyce" as the subject.

Kyla, you have to killfile the thread. Works the same way as putting a
poster in the killfile, but you choose the subject line instead. Then you
won't see any new ones.

We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield."

Pineapple here. I sounds awful but bacon and pineapple are wonderful on
pizza.

But I think the best pizza I ever had was a pear and gorgonzola at a
California Pizza Kitchen.

I love pineapple, pear, gorgonzola and bacon. I say this even though I
have never talked to any of them in person and, as Candace has pointed
out, we shouldn't throw the word "love" around too easily. I have
eaten some odd pizzas with ingredients like that and I enjoyed them
but I would prefer to have my pizza and my pineapple separately.
Pineapple is wonderful in some Thai curries.

there's an Italian restaurant in Duluth, Minnesota (I'll butcher the
spelling, Pizza Luce's or something like that) that serves specialty
pizzas.... my favorite is baked potato pizza. which is basically mashed
potatoes and bacon bits and sour cream and cheddar cheese.... maybe green
onions or chives too.... anyway, sounds terrible but it's really WONDERFUL.
Next time I visit my sons there I'll have to make a point of going again,
making me hungry just thinking of it

In Redlands, CA there's a pizza place on State St that serves specialty
pizza. I had one of their mashed potato pizzas once - they do mashed
potatos and cheese with either bacon or chicken. Very tasty!

Now I'm missing my specialty pizza places I guess I'll have to see if
Whitewater, WI has one when we go visit Nancy's folks again next weekend.
