neither. an onion is more of a spicy vegetable. not spicey like a jalepeno, but spicey like ginger. this is only when an onion is raw. an onion can be salty if cooked and then salted, and can be sour if pickled (egyptians DO pickle onions,).

Why can you taste sour on sour but not sour on salty?

Well, the whole thing is very complicated. The asorbic acid in sour, compliments the falic acid in other sour foods. It may seem more sour to you if you taste sour on sour, but it is just your taste buds reacting to two different chemicals. Both chemicals combined make it very easy to be tasted, and sometimes disliked. When you taste sour on salty it's harder to taste. One ingredient in salt, called cottonseed extract, mainly counteracts most asorbic and falic acids. So, in most salty foods it's harder to taste sour things.
