So what's a vidalia onion in the UK? I cheated regional. :biggrin1:
Yeah I know but a great explanation. :biggrin1: I use to live in that area.Vidalia onions are more than just a variety of sweet onion -- they may actually be of several varieties, but the defining characteristic is that they are grown in a particular region of Georgia where the soils are very low in sulfur. It is this sulfur deficiency that prevents the onions from developing the strong-tasting compounds (which are sulfur compounds) and leads to an unusually sweet-tasting onion. If you took a vidalia onion from the supermarket and planted it in average soil, the onions that grew as offsets would not be as sweet.
Based on this, I am not sure that there is another term for a vidalia onion elsewhere, since vidalia onions must come from the area of (or surrounding) Vidalia, Georgia.

We make "Sloppy Joes". When in the Wilkes Barre area they called them "Wampies" and I know some areas call them loose meat sandwiches.
One of the few clear-cut differences I notice between the American Northwest and Vancouver is that we use gyros (for the Greek food), and they use doner kebab. It's a little strange because I think our Turkish vs. Greek divide is about the same.
We call them yiros in central Australia, but on the east coast they're gyros. I believe they're also known as kebabs in the UK.
Jesus just give me a whopper.....Not really a specific foodstuff, but I'll mention it anyway.....
"Burger King" - here in Oz the franchise is called "Hungry Jack's".
From 1971-1997 we only had it as HJ. Then - after a legal dispute - for a few years, we had some open under the BK name while the HJs still had the HJ name. Then - after another legal dispute - BK left Australia and now the BKs are renamed HJ.
I know I've explained that very poorly, so please hold the line while I put you through to our Wikipedia department:
