The pearl onion (Allium ampeloprasum var. sectivum or A. ampeloprasum 'Pearl-Onion Group'), [1] also known as button onion, baby onion or silverskin onion in the UK, [2] is a close relative of the leek (A. ampeloprasum var. porrum), and may be distinguished from common onions by having only a single storage leaf, [3] similar to cloves of garlic.
The tree onion or Egyptian onion produces bulblets in the umbel instead of flowers, and is now known to be a hybrid of A. cepa and A. fistulosum. It has previously been treated as a variety of A. cepa , for example A. cepa var. proliferum , A. cepa var. bulbiferum , and A. cepa var. viviparum .
Caramelization is a process of browning of sugar used extensively in cooking for the resulting butter-like flavor and brown color. The brown colors are produced by three groups of polymers: caramelans (C 24 H 36 O 18), caramelens (C 36 H 50 O 25), and caramelins (C 125 H 188 O 80).

Cercidiphyllum japonicum, known as the Katsura (from its Japanese name カツラ, 桂), is a species of flowering tree in the family Cercidiphyllaceae native to China and Japan. It is sometimes called caramel tree for the light caramel smell it emits during leaf fall. [2] It is also sometimes called candyfloss tree because of the scent. [3]
The tree produces spiky green fruits about the size of a golf ball, which turn brown and drop off the tree over an extended period beginning in fall and continuing over the winter.
[9] [4] Researchers suggested the species be named Thiomargarita namibiensis, which means "sulfur pearl of Namibia", which was fitting as the bacteria appeared a blue-green, white color, as well as spheres strung together. [1] [2] The previously largest known bacterium was Epulopiscium fishelsoni, at 0.5 mm long. [10]
