Bermuda onions

Sweet Atlantic variety

Bermuda onions are large, mild-flavored onions with a flattened shape and pale yellow or white skin.

Originally associated with Bermuda but now grown widely, they're prized for eating raw in salads and sandwiches because they lack the sharp bite of other varieties: Slice the Bermuda onions thin for the burger.
