    Oh so for peas we actually have split peas! Which lets us do like pound of split peas for 1.50 on amazon, which comes out 1500 calories worth of peas, frozen peas are usually a lot more expensive. So yeah, dry again!

    Very curious what is regional and what isn’t!

    Also part of why meat is so cheap is subsidiaries, meat sellers are paid a pretty penny to sell it cheap here.

      Wow. That’s incredible value for the split peas. Do they need much prep?

      Heads up I added a pic in the last one around the time you were replying. :)

        Oh baked beans are more expensive over here for that type of thing!

        And nah, like I mentioned them because I just made a batch. Boiling them for 30 minutes turns them into peas, then if you boiled them for an hour you’d get split pea soup and can just add herbs and stuff to have a VERY hearty soup as they’d break down into mush.
