Okay, so we now have the correct finalists for the 2019 Hungry Onion “Golden Onion” Awards (also known as “The Greggy”). The nominations were tallied and the top three nominees have been placed on the final ballot. Depending on the number, some categories have as many as four nominees or as little as two. Below is the list and below that is the link for voting.
You do not have to live in New Jersey to vote. ANY member of the Hungry Onion may vote so long as they are judging the finalists based on their contributions to the NJ board only.

Many thanks to @CurlzNJ for her assistance with these awards and EVERYONE here for their participation in both the awards AND conversation throughout the year. It has been a pleasure to be a member here on the Hungry Onion.
Ladies and gentlemen, a reminder that voting ends tomorrow (Wednesday) at midnight.
As I will be in PA for the next three days (departing tomorrow in this horrible weather), I am leaving @CurlzNJ to announce the winners at a time of her choosing on Thursday.
I’m not bringing my laptop, a self-imposed three day break from it. But I can access this site through my phone and will be in touch!
Got your ball gowns and tuxedos on, folks? The results are in! The survey monkeys stayed up all night compiling your votes, and so, on behalf of @gcaggiano and with thanks to the Academy and all of our HOs who contribute to the NJ board, here they are:
Kindest Poster:@curlznj (blushes)… I’d like to acknowledge the other nominees, as it was a CLOSE race…
Most Useful Poster: Truly our most exciting category, as WE HAVE A TIE!@joonjoon and @goodparmesan will share this title, but @corvette_johnny and @gcaggiano are also tied for the runner-up spot!
Mrs. P & I are honored and humbled to win two awards. Thank you very much for everyone that voted for us!
Also, congratulations to all of the other well deserved winners and nominees!
Congrats to all of the very deserving winners and to all of the worthy nominees. But where are the red carpet pictures in front of the bowling alley Chinese restaurant?
What a lot of fun. Thanks @gcaggiano and @CurlzNJ for all your hard work in pulling this off.
I mentioned to Mr Bean that I was nominated for Kindest Poster. He laughed out loud and I think he said that I’m not really that nice but i can’t be sure.
