The "Pea" & "Bean" Thread
 

Do you like peas? what are you favourite kind of peas? what about peas that you hate, or maybe genetically enhanced peas? This thread intends to welcome debates and our love for the green pea that you either love or hate.

i prefer french beans :D

I never had the chance to taste french beans. That said, I altered the title to include bean talk.

Beans

I love green beans. I like lima beans but only if they are fresh off the vines - the canned ones are just plain nasty and the frozen ones are blah. Baby peas are good too.

Thinking green today, Shelley?

I prefer my peas in the form of soup with some ham. :D

Only peas that I like are sugar or snow peas. You can eat them right in the pod and they are great in salads or stir fry. Shelled peas are okay and I'll eat them. However they are not something I would choose as a side dish and most of my meals are vegetarian so variety is a key sticking point.

With beans, we eat all sorts in a variety of ways. Lentils, Black, Cranberry Beans, Kidney, Pinto, Refried and Green beens are all used throughout the year.

Judging by marcos response here lynne if you have a personal question directly towards me please use the pm system and I'll happily respond.

Anyway, I not that keen on garden peas, maybe the saturated green colour is a sign that the goodness of the pea is that great.

you gonna cause the 'The PEA thread' to be closed.. :mad:

I'm gonna get me a beans dish after 8 years without taking them :O

p.s. :rolleyes: I wonder if they can close the 'Do Not Close' thread?!?!

Not really, that post is taken out of context.

I'm not a fan of peas OR beans.
