Eat Peas

Green peas come in different sizes, small, medium and large. They each have the same color, and they all are difficult or almost impossible to eat with a fork. The easiest way to eat them, is to use a spoon, but that is not proper etiquette at a formal dinner table. Pushing them onto the fork with a finger from the opposite hand would at least manage a few peas to land on the fork, but when you lift the fork to your mouth, they start slipping back into the plate. They make an excellent salad when added to other fresh vegetables, topped with Thousand Island Dressing.
