Give Peas a Chance

Why You Should Give Peas A Chance!

They're good for you!!!
They're green!!
They're fun!
Ok, honestly, I'm not the biggest fan of peas (in general). They kind of scare me. Seriously. But, I think that EVERYONE should give peas a chance! I mean, they're round, they're small, they explode when you step on them, and they are good for shooting through a straw at your brother! (sister, or both) I do realize that peas aren't for everyone, but I feel that everyone, young or old, should give peas a chance.

This page is dedicated to all those brave souls who gave peas a chance! Here’s my story:
It was just another evening. My Mom and I were eating supper. I was eating away, minding my own business, and I noticed that my Mom was eating peas! This is my chance I thought. So, I grabbed a pea off of her plate, and without thinking about the consequences, I ate it. It was actually good! I have to admit that I haven’t had peas since, but if we ever have them again, I WILL give peas a chance!


My name is Stacey Sokolan. (I’m Deena’s colleague.) Here is my harrowing account of the time I gave peas a chance.
On Sunday, September nineteenth, at approximately 5:30 PM, I had a life-changing experience. I know it sounds like an old cliche from the ‘60s, but I gave peas a chance. I mean, I was hungry! I knew I didn’t have to love peas, but I could at least just give them a chance and try to accept them. I don’t normally like peas--they’re green and round and, well...SQUISHY. Nonetheless, I grabbed a spoonful of peas and...dug in. It was a pretty big spoonful, too. I ate all but 9 of them (and one squished one. Poor guy; he didn’t even have a chance). I tried to swallow them whole, but I had recurring visions of the numerous choking experiences I’ve had, so I ended up having to chew them. All in all, the peas did not kill me, and I think they have made me more accepting. So... ALL I AM SAYING, IS GIVE PEAS A CHANCE!
