What it is

Snap peas are a variety of pea with edible pods, similar to snow peas but plumper. They are a type of legume, grown from a pea plant and harvested when immature. Snap peas are typically eaten whole, pod and all, and can be enjoyed raw or cooked.

Why it's used

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers whole fruits and vegetables to be safe for consumption. There are no specific regulatory evaluations for snap peas as an ingredient, as they are a natural food product.
