Default Why do some kids hate peas?

Fresh ones, newly cooked, I mean.

Or frozen ones, for that matter - those taste fine to me.

I understand canned ones can taste nasty - but so does canned spaghetti,
to me, at least.

Canned peas are truly repulsive. Some vegetables should never be put into
cans. Spinach and asparagus fall into that category. Hey, can you imagine
canned broccoli?

Canned peas are a zillion times better than canned pasta.

I like canned peas. Libbys canned peas are very small now.

I like peas. My preference is for fresh or frozen but i don't mind canned.

They are tasty if there is still a little crunch, but they develop a
special sort of nastiness if cooked until completely soft.

I had a surprise at supper last night at our old neighbour's place. She
cooked chcken breast stuffed with Swiss chard and goat cheese. It was
surprisingly good. I had only had Swiss chard once before and just
couldn't see my way to enjoying it.

I liked kale when I was 3 or 4 but no other veggies except for baked potato we had with kale.

There is no one food that everyone likes. Only kid I know of who hated peas
was my brother.

I find nothing bad about frozen vegetables... fresh aren't available
all year so frozen is a lot better than none. And most fresh at
market are not really very fresh, they were harvested weeks ago.
Frozen peas are perfectly fine, they are better than canned and the
only time I have fresh are those I grow. I mostly grow these, very
prolific and they are eaten pod and all... I like them raw plain, and
in a salad.

Peas were one of my all time favorites as a child so I had a hard time
understanding why my brother hated them too. My parents used to take me to
A & W Root Beer in Wichita. I hated the root beer and I hated the ice cream
but I loved their burritos. They were deep fried and I shudder now to think
of what else might have been in them but there were peas! Does anyone here
remember burritos like those?

I also remember going to a restaurant somewhere in the south and asking what
the vegetable that day was. I was pleased that it was peas but when my
plate came with black eyed peas, I was upset. My mom reminded me that I
loved them and I did but my tastebuds were set on what the waitress referred
to as English peas. Thankfully everyone in this house now loves them. I
just wish I could get good, fresh ones more often. Those are few and far
between.

To me the frozen ones haven't got much flavor and there is nothing much
worse than the mixed ones. Frozen peas thawed and in a salad are fine. But
to cook frozen ones? I'd rather have canned or fresh.

Nope. I wouldn't eat that either. To me, ice cream is right up there with
broccoli on the ick factor.

I used to like Stokely gold tiny party peas, they were super tiny. I think Libby gourmet peas are the same thing but I can't get them here. Where I shop does have Libby gourmet carrots tho.

You better hang on to this husband of yours. I'm trying to imagine the
horrors of asking you out for a dinner date. You would scare off any
potential suitor.

Libby green beans look like baby green beans too, their sliced carrots look like sliced baby carrots.

Most frozen veggies don't need to be cooked, just heated... and some
are fine just thawed in salads... those mixed vegetables are excellent
marinated, as is frozen broccoli and cauliflower. Those frozen stir
fry blends are very good uncooked too, thaw and add a couple handfuls
to a tossed salad. Frozen veggies are very handy and are a great time
saver, no prepping, no waste... many make a great added topping to a
frozen pizza. My only recommendation is to spend the few extra
pennies for the national brands, far better quality than the generics.
I don't care for frozen corn on the cob but frozen niblets are fine...
add to a marinated bean salad. I always keep an assortment of frozen
vegtables in the freezer. Frozen brussel sprouts are far better than
those nasty old things sold at the local market.

The only pizza I ever remember as a child was the Chef-Boyardee pizza
kit my mom bought.
