About BLACKEYE PEAS, BLACKEYE
Meijer Blackeye Peas (USDA ID 1920177) is a dried legume product sold under the Meijer private label, containing only blackeye peas with no additional ingredients. This product is distinct from the canned blackeyed peas entry (ID 1920148) in that it represents the dry, uncooked form of the legume, categorized in the USDA database as a vegetable and lentil mix. Dried blackeyed peas require soaking and cooking before consumption.
The nutritional values for this dry product are significantly higher per 100 grams than the cooked, canned version due to the absence of added water. Per 100g dry: 286 calories, 22.86g protein, 62.86g carbohydrates, 2.86g fat, and 17.1g dietary fiber. The protein content is high for a plant food, making dried blackeyed peas a significant plant-based protein source. The fiber content of 17.1g per 100g is exceptionally high, characteristic of dried legumes. These values will be substantially reduced on a cooked weight basis due to water absorption during preparation.
Blackeyed peas contain no major allergens and are suitable for vegans and vegetarians. The product is naturally gluten-free. No additives, preservatives, or processing agents are present in the single-ingredient formulation. Blackeyed peas are a staple in Southern US, African, and South Asian cuisines and are used in dishes such as Hoppin' John, dal-style preparations, and stews. The single-ingredient, no-additive nature of this product makes it a clean-label, whole-food pantry item.
