Onion
The onion ("Allium cepa" L., from Latin "cepa" "onion"), also known as the bulb onion or common onion, is a vegetable that is the most widely cultivated species of the genus "Allium". Its close relatives include the garlic, shallot, leek, chive, and Chinese onion. This genus also contains several other species variously referred to as onions and cultivated for food, such as the Japanese bunching onion ("Allium fistulosum"), the tree onion ("A." ×"proliferum"), and the Canada onion ("Allium canadense"). The name "wild onion" is applied to a number of "Allium" species, but "A. cepa" is exclusively known from cultivation.
Susan Christie
Susan Christie is an American singer from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. She is best known for a minor hit folk song “I Love Onions” (1966) and for her critically acclaimed solo psychedelic-folk album "Paint A Lady" (2006). Early career  A gifted child, Susan Christie met music producer and director John Hill while the two were involved in a junior-high play. Most of her future music was produced in collaboration with Hill, with whom she was also romantically involved. Following high school, the two studied together at Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. During this time, they came to the attention of Cameo-Parkway record producer Dave Appell, which inspired both Christie and Hill to begin seriously pursuing music as a career.
Cromniomancy
Cromniomancy is divination by onions. It is usually done by interpreting their sprouting behaviour, after some kind of ritual to state the topic of the divination. This often involves inscribing the onions, dedicating them on an altar or something similar. But cromniomancy is/was also done in idiosyncratic way not involving sprouting them. It is not really known why the onion was chosen for that kind of divination, not other fast-sprouting plants. A look at other divination methods shows that plants used for divination have or had some significance as important food source and/or medicinal herb.
Scallion
Scallions ( green onion, spring onion and salad onion) are vegetables of various "Allium" onion species. Scallions have a milder taste than most onions. Their close relatives include the garlic, shallot, leek, chive, and Chinese onion. Although the bulbs of many "Allium" species are used as food, the defining characteristic of scallion species is that they lack a fully developed bulb. In common with all "Allium" species, scallions have hollow, tubular green leaves, growing directly from the bulb. These leaves are used as a vegetable; they are eaten either raw or cooked. The leaves are often chopped into other dishes, in the manner of onions or garlic.
Pierogi
Pierogi ( ) (singular pieróg), also known as varenyky, are filled dumplings of Central European origin made by wrapping unleavened dough around a savory or sweet filling and cooking in boiling water. These dumplings are popular in West Slavic (Polish and Slovak), Hungarian, East Slavic (Belarusian, Russian, and Ukrainian), Baltic (Latvian and Lithuanian) and other Central and Eastern European cuisines where they are known under their local names. However, pierogi are especially almost always associated with Poland and Slovakia, where they are considered national dishes. Typical fillings include potato, sauerkraut, ground meat, cheese, and fruits.
Onion Futures Act
The Onion Futures Act is a United States law banning the trading of futures contracts on onions. In 1955, two onion traders, Sam Siegel and Vincent Kosuga, cornered the onion futures market on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The resulting regulatory actions led to the passing of the act on August 28, 1958. , it remains in effect. Onion futures trading began on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange in the mid-1940s as an attempt to replace the income lost when butter futures contract ceased. By the mid-1950s, onions futures contracts were the most traded product on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. In 1955, they accounted for 20% of its trades.
Botrytis allii
Botrytis allii is a plant pathogen, a fungus that causes neck rot in stored onions ("Allium cepa") and related crops. Its teleomorph is unknown, but other species of "Botrytis" are anamorphs of "Botryotinia" species. The species was first described scientifically by Mancel Thornton Munn in 1917. There are seven different species of "Botrytis" associated with onions in storage but the rot induced by "B. allii" and "B. aclada" causes the greatest commercial loss. The two can be distinguished microscopically; the conidia of "B. allii" have a maximum length of 15 μm and mean size of 10.2 × 5.7 μm, while the conidia of "B. aclada" have a maximum length of 12 μm and mean size of 8.6 × 4.6 μm.
