1 bag each.
They have been sitting on the floor of my garage the last three days. No one around here is short of food, I just don't want to go to the grocery store for a while (Wuhan Flu vector) I was already pretty stocked up, but wanted to top things off. I have a family of four. Going to take a while to eat through them. Ideas? Store was the local Cash and Carry each bag was less than $15. I also got a 25 pounds of ground beef, a25 pound bag of long grain brown rice, 5 pound bag of jalapenos, 5 pound bag of little sweet peppers. |

Do you have a stash of frozen chicken wings too?
You should put everything on your bed and take pictures. |

Get a food dehydrator.
Slice 'em thin and dehydrate them. Then make instant potatoes and a LOT of onion powder... |

View Quote We freeze some and share the rest with our neighbors. You should see the shit they're sending over during the Kung Flu apocalypse. |

When they start growing "ears", cut them into pieces and plant them. Then you'll have more after the harvest.

Maybe give some to friends neighbors and family? I keep an eye out for my next door neighbors house and she keeps an eye on my house. She dates a friend of mine so I kind of feel obligated to help her out. I told her today to let me know if she runs out of liquor and I'd give her some of mine.

Who even sells 50lbs of onions?
Maybe take them both of start a large vegetable garden, you can triple what you have now by fall with them. |
|
You’re going to been 50 lbs of crayfish, 30 lbs of corn upon the cob and a big ass pot.

Baked potato, home made steak fries, mashed potatoes, hash browns, give them to a homeless shelter.
It's not rocket science |
|
|
You chose poorly.
Start making french fries and Onion rings, etc. |
|
I have never seen a 50 pound bag of potatoes or onions sold in retail grocery stores .
That is mostly food service deliveries . |
|
Take them out back and rub dirt on them; then sell at the Farmer’s Market for twice what you paid for them.

Agree. See if a food pantry/kitchen wants about 30 pounds of each.

A few days ago while wandering around in my GF's kitchen I discovered the 'potato' button on the microwave.
Since then I've greatly enjoyed making five thousand calorie potatoes (butter, sour cream, cheese, bacon etc) |

View Quote Put a couple of teaspoons of butter in a skillet. Heat skillet. Slice onions and caramelize onions in skillet. Slice up potatoes, put potatoes in skillet. Add more butter. Fry up potatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Eat deliciousness. |

Quoted: I'm surprised they sold them to you. Most of the food wholesalers only deal with the food service industry . View Quote Not this place. Each of the 50 pound bags were less than $20. Seemed like a good deal. I also got a 25 pound bag of long grain rice, 5 pound bag of jalapenos, 5 pound bag of little sweet peppers. |

Cant believe it was not said.
Make Vodka, granted you wont get much. As for the onions, I have no idea but we probably use 10 lbs a month in my house. |

Invite some Irishmen over. That 50 pound bag will be gone in no time.
As for the onions...onion cannon? |
|
Make fried stuff and sell/share with the neighbors
I figured we would have threads like this. |
