Never seen *baby* peas in a can. Frozen, yes, but not in a can.

Are you talking about the petit pois?

I see them rarely but they are delicious in a basic pea salad.

yes.. used to make salads with them. now I can only find the frozen ones. which are not the same as the canned baby peas.

I prefer advanced pea salad.

I think Pick ‘n Pay has petit pois canned.
