http://www.durgan.org/URL/?YYJSB 25 March 2015 Frozen Peas. Meaningful label
Being concerned about the supermarket food available, I prefer products grown and packaged in North America. I use from 2 to 4 pounds of frozen peas per week and today found packages from Zeyrs Supermarket with clear labels which is very rare.

Maybe that's one thing that Canadian producers can do to compete, labeling their products clearly.

In my entire life I have never bought peas, frozen, or canned.
Only dried split peas for soup.


As a kid I bought dried whole peas but only for my pea shooter.

Peas are a cheap, palatable nourishing food.

I agree, but I don't recall seeing this label before. Maybe I am not being observant enough.

It's true, and I love beans and like lentils, and even pureed split peas.
But there is something about whole peas with their shriveled casing and oversweet innards that has always repulsed me.

I steam the peas then puree them. You then don't have to look at the shriveled up balls. Mind you I seldom eat for pleasure of taste but for what I assume are the necessary nutrients.

I am sort of conditioned like car, put in gas and go and add a bit of oil and water to keep tuned up.

When I do spree, it is a total pleasure. Moderation is a fatal thing. Nothing succeeds like excess.

I've never noticed that label. Since they're Green Giant, I'd expect all stores carrying this brand will be the same. I'll check our SuperStore since its part of the same group.
