So sweet you'll be tempted to eat it like an apple. Red Candy Apple offers improved size, better interior color and intense dark red skin with a very mild taste. The color moves inside as the bulbs mature producing beautiful red rings when sliced for use in your favorite recipes. Remarkably uniform, it produces a high percentage of single centers in solid firm bulbs. Red onions contain quercetin, an antioxidant that recent studies suggest may help fight heart disease, cancer and cataracts.
