That's why I usually just ask for water when I'm offered refreshments as most folk can't make tea or coffee (or use instant) the way I like it.
Ranger coffee = stick of instant coffe + satchet of coffee whitener in the mouth. Followed by some water, roll around in th mouth and swallow.
I love (green) peas, so was very disappointed with just how yucky mushy peas tasted first time I tried it. Was quite relieved when I eventually found out that mushy peas aren't made from green peas. 
Still avoid it though.

Oh no, you don't have 'garden' peas with your fish and chips do you?

We have mange tout with ours because we're posh. (Actually because they're easier to grow, I can recommend 'Bijou' from Real Seeds with its 6-7" pods).
Tend to go with curry sauce, if they have the one DH considers the ”proper” one. Don’t mind garden peas with fish and chips though.Oh no, you don't have 'garden' peas with your fish and chips do you?
But that might be from being used to green peas being served with (simmered) fish, boiled potatoes and a sauce. Although, to be honest, I have green peas with a lot of things.

They're not?
Dried marrowfat peas, according to wikipedia…They're not?
I thought marrowfat peas were just normal peas (Pisum sativum) that had been allowed to mature beyond the 'juicy' state on the plant - i.e. had gone dry like broad beans (oh, yeh, whilst on the subject, I hate those ).
However, I may be wrong

I think you’re right, but different varieties are used for marrowfat peas and garden peas, respectively. But I’m sure someone more knowledgeable can chime in with more info.I thought marrowfat peas were just normal peas (Pisum sativum) that had been allowed to mature beyond the 'juicy' state on the plant - i.e. had gone dry like broad beans (oh, yeh, whilst on the subject, I hate those

I love fresh broad beans raw straight off the plant. Could also happily eat them cooked a few times a week.
