AUSTIN, TX - Jimmy Bassetti, Partner/Owner of J&D Produce, joined AndNowUKnow to discuss the company’s proprietary HoneySweet Onions and its year-round program for the variety.
“It’s a very mild onion,” Jimmy tells us. “What we’ve done over many, many years of natural selection was remove the acid out of the onion to a level where it still tastes a little bit like an onion but doesn’t have that biting hot flavor.”
In doing so, Jimmy says that the company is helping to increase onion consumption and kids can eat them on burgers or you can eat them raw on salads.
“We’re seeing tremendous growth in this category,” Jimmy added.
