Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Low cost nutritious foods?

I have an older friend who was raised in rural Georgia during the depression. He says some days they would have cornbread and peas. Other days they would have peas and cornbread.

By peas he meant purple hulls. They grow fast and a gardener can make two crops of them during the growing season. I would prefer to eat them as a steady diet opposed to beans but both are okay.

Somebody tell me the difference between a pea and a lentil?
