They are FAB !!!

In fact, if someone chose to cover themselves in mushy peas, I would take great delight in licking them off.

For the fork impaired, try a spoon (shovel).

Naaaa, you got it wrong, chasing peas is crap when you are hungry, best thing to do with mobile peas, is to mash them with the back of the fork and then shovel them. And no, they are not the same as mushy peas, mushy peas is something completely different.

Where I come from, mushy peas is a luxury, we mostly had to do with pea wet.

And before you say, after all them pickled eggs must fill you up, well, you know the score, booze makes one hungry.

I always eat more when I have been drinking, but oddly enough, it is only ale that makes me eat, which to me, is a good thing.
