A child holding an edible pod pea in Kenya. Snow peas, along with snap peas and unlike field and garden peas, are notable for having edible pods that lack inedible fiber [11] (in the form of "parchment", a fibrous layer found in the inner pod rich in lignin [12]) in the pod walls. Snow peas have the thinner walls of the two edible pod variants.
An edible-podded pea is similar to a garden, or English, pea, but the pod is less fibrous, and is edible when young. Pods of the edible-podded pea, including snap peas, do not have a membrane and do not open when ripe. At maturity, the pods grow to around 4 to 8 centimetres (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 to 3 inches) in length. Pods contain three to nine peas.
