I'm glad I bought a 25# bag some weeks ago and have been using them
without problem. I really would miss onions.

Thanks for that, Janet. I also have an old bag that I've
been using so won't worry about what I have.

I should find a website (or get on a mailing list) about
recalled food.

I know she's nasty, but mind your language, Gary.

Hey Hank, post a recipe or are you just an ass lover?

The FDA maintains several recall mailing lists. I used to subscribe
but it just got to be too much email.

There's this, too.

I think that a free trade mag so I suspect you'll get at least an
email a day regardless of anything happening.

thanks but I don't need an email everyday because anyone I have ever
ordered something sends me something about a big deal almost every
day.

If you're cooking them, that kills salmonella.

It's several but I can't tell if mine are on there and I don't remember
where I bought them. They're Walla Walla Sweets. so I think they're fine as
those have to be grown here.

The source is a distributor of onions, not a grower. So it doesn't
matter where your onions were grown. If they were stored at the
distributor's warehouses, they are suspect.

we had a large bag of onions, almost all of them
were rotten so they must have been stored in really
bad conditions. usually they'll last long enough
that we can eat them and not have to throw much
away. so really, it was a good deal that ended up
not being all that great of a good deal after all.

the onions here are starting to fall over so we'll
be eating them from the garden for a while.

call the store where you purchased them and ask.

You could ask at the post office.
