Strangely, I was looking for ways to make yummy processed peas, like tinned marrowfat peas, because we can't get them easily in Switzerland. During my research, I happened across guidance from the Food and Agriculture Organisation and World Health Organisation on processed pea standards. I kid you not.

Anyhow, I read this:

Pea fragments (portions of peas: separated or individual cotyledons; crushed, partial or broken cotyledons; and loose skins) 10% m/m

FAO/WHO pea ordnance

And I wondered, how many people are actually examining their drained peas to determine whether or not there are too many fragments? And what should they do if it were to be the case?

I need to get out more.
