Because they just are. (Personally, I’ve always viewed them as mere fillers, like chickpeas. But green peas still in the pod? A whole ‘nother treat.)
Green peas contain carbs, protein, and many beneficial nutrients, including fiber, vitamin A, and vitamin K, among others.
Green peas are a popular vegetable. They are also quite nutritious and contain a fair amount of fiber and antioxidants.
Additionally, research shows they may help protect against some chronic illnesses, such as heart disease and cancer.
And dried ones go great with straws.

No sneak attacks are possible when you sit in the back row…
Ever notice how there isn’t a vitamin F?
Doctor, I am feeling overwhelmed and depressed..well I think you are imbalanced..not enough F in your system..I know a pharmacist that might give a F..if he showed up for work..hard to find a good F ing source, someone to give a F. Here is a sample to start you, take your prescription and get the F out…
It’s all good..except beets man.
Green food, yeech.
