    Cooked onions, I suppose I’d agree. They’re just kinda mushy. Raw onions on the other hand have a great crunchy texture to me.

    Thick sliced raw onion rings on burgers fluffs the whole thing up a bit and adds some airy crunch.

    They add a nice crunchy texture to Greek salad as well.

    Cut into lengthwise strips, they’re similarly fun in stir-fry if you don’t cook them too long.

    Diced on top of a tostada or taco or bagel with cream cheese and lox, they add a little crunchy something but admittedly this could be also be achieved with pretty much anything not-squishy.

      This is awesome. lol. I never once thought of adding air to my burgers. If I want crunch I’d add some bacon or even curly fries

        Haha yeah, bacon always wins. Potato chips on a sandwich are nice for that same kinda fluffy crunch layer.
