Wasabi Addict

Wasabi peas have long been eaten as a healthy snack. They’re basically green peas that are coated with a dried and hard wasabi paste and then dried out. So they’re crunchy and give you the hot kick that you’re looking for in a snack.

The green peas themselves come from the legume family and chock full of vitamins and minerals such as folic acids and vitamin B6. For this reason they’re good at recovering from fatigue. Green peas are also high in iron. The wasabi side of the equation is good for you as well.

Wasabi is said to have chemicals in them which have been found to be anti-bacterial in nature. For this reason wasabi has been thought to be a good source of food that will help ward off food poisoning and was actually used in Japan in that capacity for years.

These two ingredients combined make for a very healthy low calorie snack that has become quite popular all over the world. Many bars have started serving them as they go well with beer. The heat doesn’t last all that long and for that reason, you can keep on eating and eating and eating.
