Question: are chives and green onions the same?
Answer: Green onions have long, slender, green stalks that end in small, white onion bulbs. Chives on the other hand, although part of the bulbous onion family have inconspicuous bulbs. The bulbs are so tiny that they almost pass off as non-existent. Their green stalks are long, tender, and hollow, and resemble grass blades.
