Precut onions are sold in several readiness states: raw pre-cut (uncooked), ready-to-eat (prepped for immediate use), and fully cooked (sautéed) options.
Precut onions save time and reduce mess by removing the need to peel, slice, or chop. They’re marketed as ready-to-use meal starters to speed up cooking and prep.
