ONIONS by Janet Spencer
Onions are the sixth most popular vegetable crop in the world. In the U.S. onions are the third most consumed fresh vegetable, coming in after the potato and the tomato. Come along with Tidbits as we cut some onions!
WONDERFUL ONIONS
• The onion is a vegetable that belongs to the genus Allium. “Allium” is Latin for garlic, and the allium genus includes garlic, scallions, shallots, leeks, and chives. Around 750 plants belong to the Allium genus. Some are edible and others ornamental. • The word “onion” springs from the Latin word unio meaning “one” or “unity.” • Onions probably originated in central Asia, and their cultivation began around 7,000 years ago. Archeologists have found traces of onions dating back to 5000 B.C., found in Bronze Age settlements. • Egyptians considered onions an object of worship, symbolizing eternity because of their concentric circles. Paintings of onions appear on the walls of the pyramids. Egypt’s King Ramses IV died in 1160 B.C. and was entombed with onions covering his eyes. • Excavators of the doomed city Pompeii, wiped out when Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD 79, found gardens where onions had been growing. The bulbs had left behind telltale cavities in the ground. Turn the page for more!
