[Sca-cooks] Field peas

[Pat]

Okay, it's official, I'm batty - I'm replying to my own posts...
Bear, you might want to look at something called "Southern Peas."  I've found several online articles from various County Extension Offices on Southern Peas, that claim that "Southern Peas are also called Blackeyed Peas and Field Peas."  None that I can find, however, give the scientific name or origin.

Thanks, that may explain the misunderstanding about the origin.

Yesterday on NPR, I heard an Alabaman discussing field peas. He used "field 
pea" in a general manner to refer to any legume being grown in the fields. 
This usage matches up to the usage Mordanna put forward, and suggests that 
it is at least a Southern regional usage.
