Taking the pea
It seems I'm not alone in my love of wasabi peas (see yesterday's blog).
Two colleagues - one habitually greedy and the other a slender creature who seems to eat only fruit - have been helping me eat my rapidly diminishing supply. Other workmates, too, have been digging in.
The good news is that from my research on the web they seem to be healthy - the peas, not my fellow hacks. They're just oven dried peas coated with wasabi paste.
I'm now trying to persuade someone to bring in some cold bottles of San Miguel to accompany the few wasabi peas that remain. Or maybe a nice bottle of Chablis if anyone feels generous.


I saw some wasabi peas in a supermarket the other day, but they just looked mouldy so I didn't buy them. I will get some next time now I know they're not madness in a bag.
Give them a go, Tracy. Just don't blame me if they're actually mouldy and make you ill!
