They have a less bitter taste and are good on sandwiches and in salads. The yellow onions are stronger and more bitter and are better for cooking.

Ricnnl is right. purple onions are sweeter. (cook here) do not and i mean do not use them in stuffing or anything that you intend on baking. it will ruin the taste. purple onions are best eaten when raw.

They are less bitter but a bit stronger! They are better to eat raw than the other onions. They are nice with salads. My boyfriend has them with steak in a sandwich. Hope that helps!

To me, sweeter. I like the in some dishes not others. They're good with meats but, I prefer yellow onions in veggies like scalloped potatoes.
