Frozen peas have flavor. And good texture.
And make excellent on-the-fly icepacks.

As a kid, I acquired a pea-hatred from canned peas. Then I tasted fresh peas and figured out the problem....
I feel the same way about green beans.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I actually thought canned green beans were OK... until I had fresh ones.

See, as a kid, I hated peas because we had to shell them. And I hated that worse than shucking corn.

Oh, there's this Ethiopian place in Evanston where I once had green beans with the meal. They tasted canned to me. What kind of restaurant uses canned green beans? OK, I know many diner-type places do, but still...

I'd leave by 9am, but I'm super-cautious about that kind of thing.

I've only shelled peas a few times in my childhood, while visiting my grandma on her farm. I definitely preferred doing that over shucking corn, because getting that damn silk out of the corn cob was such a PITA.

I liked shucking corn as a kid. But I was glad we didn't have to do that for the cow's corn.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That's assuming getting there by two hours in advance, right?
Can you make breakfast in time for us to leave then? I mean, if you still want to do breakfast? It still seems to be on the plate for me.
