Frequently Asked Questions (Google's Top Searches)

What are Wasabi Peas made of?

Wasabi peas are made from dried, roasted (or fried) whole green peas coated in a light batter of cornstarch, wheat flour, oil, sugar, and authentic wasabi horseradish seasoning to deliver their signature fiery flavor shell.

Are Wasabi Peas made with real wasabi?

Most commercially available wasabi peas use a flavor combination of horseradish, mustard oil, and natural flavorings mixed with green food coloring (like chlorophyll). Because genuine Japanese wasabi japonica rhizome is extremely rare and volatile, horseradish provides the exact same signature nose-tingling heat!

Are Wasabi Coated Green Peas spicy?

Yes, they have a distinctive, sharp heat. Unlike chili peppers (which contain capsaicin that burns the tongue), wasabi heat comes from allyl isothiocyanate. This produces a short, intense vapor heat that hits the sinuses immediately and dissipates quickly, leaving a clean, pleasant taste.

Are Wasabi Peas healthy?

Compared to traditional fried chips, wasabi peas offer a better nutritional profile. They are naturally high in dietary fiber and plant protein, low in saturated fats, and cholesterol-free. However, because they are seasoned and coated, they should be enjoyed as an energizing, portion-controlled snack.

Are Wasabi Coated Peas vegan and gluten-free?

• Vegan: Yes, our wasabi peas are completely plant-based and dairy-free.

• Gluten Status: Many wasabi pea coatings utilize wheat flour or starch for extra crunch. (Check the ingredient list on the packaging if you have severe wheat or gluten allergies).

How should Wasabi Coated Peas be stored?

Store in an airtight container or sealable pouch in a cool, dry pantry away from ambient moisture. Keeping them tightly sealed prevents ambient humidity from softening their coating, ensuring they maintain their maximum crunch for up to 12 months.
