God, I'm seriously not gonna argue about peas on a forum but every batch I have made was tough with half burned half undercooked. "shelly" is a good way to describe it. No idea how on earth you can say all peas are the same, I mean frozen chips, wedges, baked beans, ketchups can all vary wildly by brand.
