I rarely see onions labeled “Spanish” in the stores. I see yellow onions of all sizes, usually smaller ones in mesh bags and bigger ones sold loose, though sometimes the bagged ones are big, too.  
 

My memory is that back in the day the red ones were called Spanish. Now, as has been posted - the big 3 red, yellow, white - look similar but are prced differently. The red ones always bit higher. I have attributed that here in healthville to the purposted benefits of red. I like red raw and oickled but based on quality and price I go for what will not be layers of paper waste.

 

Those various chives esp garlic are a whole nother delicious world.
