Is the onion raw? I never heard of it. Today was the first time I heard about a milk sandwich also.
Has anyone heard of an "onion sandwich"? I didn’t until today...

Milk toast. With real butter and a little sugar it's not bad, when your hungry.
Poached egg on toast was a cheap treat too.
For us, yes raw and beautiful. A thick (up to 1/2" inch) slice of sweet onion is delicious on home made sourdough bread.
Good stuff.

Onion sandwich with lard, mustard or butter. We made radish and butter sandwiches to.
We ate it in the garden. Pull some, wash them in the pump on the well and eat setting under the Kefer pare tree. Tomatoes with a shaker of salt eat like an apple. Same with young white turnips.

Yes. For me, it's a thinly sliced raw, sweet onion (Vidalia or Walla Walla) on white or rye bread, with Miracle Whip.

Grand mother loved clabbered milk with leftover cornbread crumbles mixed in ( clabbered milk =kind of between butter milk and clotted milk )

My grandparents and Mom and Dad loved a tall glass of buttermilk with warm cornbread mixed in it. I wouldn't go near that stuff, LOL! I have eaten it with regular milk, though. It's not bad with a few slices of bacon on the side.
All of our onion and biscuit sandwiches used raw onions.

I like to sauté the onion until soft and then tuck it between two slices of good bread.

I had a slice of onion, a slice of cheddar cheese and mayo on white bread sandwich for my lunch just the other day. I like cucumber and onion sandwiches, too, with just mayo.

That's how my Grandma Kitten ate them. I thought she was nuts until I tried it. Best with crunchy peanut butter. She also served me macaroni and canned tomatoes more than once.
My neighbor growing up, Orville Jackson introduced me to margarine on white bread sprinkled with sugar. He used to make it for his children when they were young. He died when I was still pretty little. My parents bought his land after his passing. My mom still owns it.
