I Googled a recipe for mushy peas and it's not as bad as I had
imagined. In fact, I think I'll try making it sometime. Can't see
how vinegar would improve it though.

Mushy Peas

Ingredients:

1 (10 ounce) package frozen green peas
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon butter 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black
pepper

Directions:

1. Bring a shallow pot of lightly salted water to a boil over
medium-high heat. Add frozen peas, and cook for 3 minutes, or until
tender.

2. Drain peas, and transfer to a blender or large food processor. Add
cream, butter, salt and pepper to peas, and process until blended, but
still thick with small pieces of peas.

Adjust seasonings to taste, and serve immediately.
