Default Pod peas..don't ya just love them?

Had a little wander around Budgens today for some stuff for the kids tea.
I came across a bag of peas in the pod and bought them.

I've just sat and eaten the whole lot. All 568g (for the price of 454g ).

Question is - will I get bad guts tomorrow?
I just couldn't stop eating them. My fingers are now all wrinkly from the cold and wet, like I've been in the bath too long, but once I popped I couldn't stop!

On the plus side, at least I've had my 5-a-day veg portion


Oh, and I made the kids a jacket spud and beans....

Frozen?

I hope not, eating uncooked frozen peas is one of the easiest ways to get food poisoning.

Down at the bottom of the garden, amongst the birds and the bees, there lives a lot of tiny people, they're called the Poddington Peas.
There's Creepy, Black Eyed Pea and Dumpy, Keep it a secret now please, there's Zippy, Happy and there's Sweepy, and all the Poddington Peas.
The Poddington Peas!!!

And you eat them? You evil twisted barstweard

Trick is to remember tomorrow and keep reminding yourself while dumping because the first dark green/black wipe is a scary one
Similar reaction after you've tucked into a jar of beetroot...

Summer salads, beetroot and sweetcorn, looks like you're dying from Ebola or something!

Worth it though, they are lovely. Once you start you just have to finish

Absolutely! They are like salted peanuts, once you have the first handful you keep going till they're finished, a bit like the new laxative flavour Pringles 'Once you pop you just can't stop!'

Ah, the good old beetroot!

I had a whole pack of juniper & Black pepper infused beetroot with a salad on Monday.
Wednesday morning after I'd 'logged on'.....bloody hell sweet baby Jesus!
I thought I'd popped a pile!

Ha!

In the next village to the one I live in (no shops in mine) there's a CO-OP, Somerfields, Sainsburys Local and a few years ago they built a Budgens.

Never set foot in the Budgens until a few months ago.
Have to say though, what a superb shop it is. I never use the others anymore.

You can pass some of your divis on, if you like...

Phew.
Been farting some good old fashion farts today. PROPER farty noise ones
A bit disappointed that my poo wasn't green or lumpy - I must have good enzymes in me!
No gut rot or pains so I had a kebab for my tea.

My daughter's been walking around the house with her finger under her nose constantly saying.. 'Daddy! That STINKS! over and over again.

Been and bought another bag today.
