I understand what you're saying now. Yes the canned peas we buy at the
store are over cooked and mushy, but they are not mushy peas. LOL

Have you tried the UK version?

We only keep a can of peas in the cupboard for emergency food. When they
are close to expiring I replace them. We are okay with eating them though
as they remind us both of child hood. Much prefer the frozen ones.
