    First off, the name. Mushy peas is what Southerners call them. When I was a kid, darn't Brig, they were always sloppy peys. For me they still are, no matter what my wife says with her posh Hull accent. Second, sloppy peys can be eaten with anything. I'd quite happily put them on my Christmas/Sunday dinner or ask for them at the Ritz. But I'm a bit of a culinary barbarian.

    I really like mushy peas from a chippy but I haven't managed to find a tinned one I enjoy yet. I can tolerate Morrisons own and I hate Batchelors. As for the term 'sloppy peas' it makes me feel a bit sick inside.

    Lockwoods frozen. Tinned are horrible, don’t forget the teaspoon of sugar.

    Near the start of last season I was lucky enough to be chatting to Daniel Stendel and Chris Stern at an event at Oakwell. One of the other people in the group mentioned mushy peas, whereupon Daniel started giggling and Chris went red. Google "Muschi" in German, and you'll see why I call them sloppy peas when in German company...

    Mushy peas are second only to Green beans in the culinary hall of shame, No, no and thrice no to either of them, ever

    One qualification - they need sugar and salt

    Processed or marrowfat peas boiled for 10 minutes are far better than any tinned sloppy peas.
