Dear guy who shouted in the middle of a supermarket in Itaewon: "What the hell is wrong with this backward country? I can't find fresh peas ANYWHERE!",

Thanks. I laughed really really hard.

Love,

There's a foreign food store just down the hill from What The Book.

I'm going to be optimistic and assume the guy was being ironic. If so, it's quite a funny insight. If not, if indeed he was serious, he must shut up and never utter another word ever again for the rest of his life.

Sorry about the peas situation in Itaewon. (tbh, the place doesn't deserve a proper supermarket) My New Year's resolution is to do everything in my power to visualise, promote and attain world peas for all, including Itaewon.

There's one directly under Geckos. You walk around the corner and down a sidestreet, always keeping to your right and you'll soon see it.

Peas are empty calories. Like corn.

Good for pig feed.

No big loss.

Chicken pot pie is not the same without them...

I bought a can the other day to put in fried rice- they were hard as rocks. Maybe if I cook them for awhile beforehand....
