Mine’s a pint of peas please!

Down in the big smoke, the latest snacklet to accompany your pint is the fabulous wasabi pea! Usually served in generous “pint of peas” portions, the peas are small and seemingly innocuous. BUT they pack a nose tingling punch that’ll make your eyes water. They’re dried peas coated in wasabi paste (normally to be found in Japanese cuisine like sushi). Sounds horrific doesn’t it, but there’s a good reason the packet in this photo is empty... I can feel a wasabi pea eating competition coming on...
