FROZEN PEAS- which make do you buy!

I agree, supermarket generics are fine. But then I don't eat them alone, I usually incorporate them into a dish (curry!) so would be unlikely to taste the difference between these and BE.I usually buy Tesco's own make.
By that reasoning, I should be buying the value range!Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

I only ever cook peas until the water just boils. Not a second longer.British Ex-pat in British Columbia!0 -
Always Birds Eye petit Pois. I've tried all the others and it's like eating little green bullets. We eat a LOT of peas and I just stock up when they're on offer, which is most of the time in one of the big four supermarkets around me 0

Birds Eye for me too. All the others seem hard compared to BE.0

Posh Birds Eye for eating, any 'Value' for Chalfonts. 'Value' then 'gifted' to people I don't like.
Never accept a present of frozen peas.0 -
I buy Iceland. They are cheap and just as good as Birds Eye (imho!) I love peas!0

I like Lidl and Co-Op. I'm another one who microwaves the peas instead of boiling them, I much prefer it. I adore peas but sadly my husband hates them

Birds eye bullets!! no matter how long you cook them they are rock hard and tasteless.
I always get tesco petit pois or garden peas if they have none of those.. I prefer the petit pois as they are sweeter and smaller .. and easier to get out of orifices they shouldn't be poked into!LB moment 10/06 Debt Free date 6/6/14Hope to be debt free until the day I dieMortgage-free Wannabee (05/08/30)6/6/14 £72,454.65 (5.65% int.)08/12/2023 £33602.00 (4.81% int.)0
