Why Canadians are angry with their biggest supermarket (www.bbc.com)

Canada is searching for an international grocer to enter its domestic market, after years of anger from shoppers over high food prices, much of it directed at one of the big players. But would an Aldi or a Lidl solve the problem?

I seriously doubt that was the idea. Someone probably decided the onions looked nicer that way. People are so detached from nature, they probably think the roots and specks of dirt are nasty. Besides, how many people you know regrow green onions? Never talked to anyone IRL that does this.

Been meaning to try it, but from the pic you're talking about, I bet you could still grow those. I've shaved 'em off pretty tight and they rooted fine. Been meaning to try cutting them more like the pic and experiment.

And for anyone who hasn't tried it, DO IT. It's so nice to step into the flower garden, chop some tops and have fresh. I grew the same two batches for 7-years, non-stop.
