As of 2019, yellow onions have become a staple in many kitchens, rivalling the popularity of purple/red onions. Their sweet flavour and rich, dark brown colour make them a great addition to various dishes, including French soups.

Yellow onions are not only a delight to the taste buds but also offer numerous health benefits. They are rich in antioxidants, which help control blood sugar levels, and contain antibacterial properties that may boost digestive health and heart health.

Available at local markets and supermarkets, the price of yellow onions varies depending on the location, ranging from as low as Sh5 for a piece to Sh200 for a kilo.
