peas + peas


i've found that fresh peas are basically impossible to buy, so i figured they would be a good thing to grow myself. the only problem is, you can only really grow about a handful of peas, so you might as well just eat them as you pick them since you will never have enough for a whole meal. i'm looking forward to their death so i can use that space for something else. you can eat the pods on one of these, but not the other. can you guess which?

I think that you're not supposed to eat the pods of sweat peas, right?

But Chinese peas have an edible pod?

i have since i was small child eaten the pods of sweat peas. best only to eat the sweat outer skin of the pod, not the inner paper waxy interior pod skin. but it is fun separating that with your teeth.

One bush is sweet peas. The other is poison peas. For poisoning.
