I'm not sure why, but I've noticed that smaller vegetables taste better. Small cucumbers are tastier and sweeter than the big ones (that taste like water), cherry tomatoes are more flavorful than large ones.

Until recently, fruits and vegetables were largely something that was available only to the richest. They don't make sense from a caloric standpoint, taking far too much effort for too little nutrition.
I actually think this is why most women idealize veggies; it is a status thing primarily. You can live just fine not eating a lot of vegetables.
We have very large ones like Vidalias, small ones like pearl onions, and then everything in between. Most common are probably the size of an apple (how big is an apple, you ask?)
Serioulsy.
But as I searched , apparently they can get much bigger still! Search for "biggest onions" and you'll see.
