a boltonian bonfire night feast! specially made for people who live in bolton. They seem to think that everyone knows what they are but most people have never heard of them :)
Black peas, also called parched peas or maple peas, form a traditional Lancashire dish served often on or around Bonfire Night (5 November). The dish, popular in Rochdale, Oldham, Wigan, Bury and Bolton, is made from the purple podded pea (Pisum sativum var. arvense)1 which is long soaked overnight and simmered to produce a type of mushy pea. Parching is a now defunct term for long slow boiling.2
The Black Eyed Peas are a what-used-to-be trio from LA that had their own style of hip hop. They were creative, slick, and most of all their sound was breathtaking. Kim Hill was with the trio in certain songs until she left (unfortunately) and "Fergie" joined. (oh God...)
Their Behind The Front (1998) and Bridging The Gap (2000) were their only two great albums in which they channeled their art through breathtaking and prodigious poetry. When "Fergie" came, the trio decided to go along with her idea by fucking up their careers by making pop and dance music. It's a sad thing, knowing how talented the trio was...and still is.
It just goes to show what money can do to your mind...
Retard: OMG THE BLACK EYED PEAS MY HUMPS SONG WAS THE BOMB FERGIE IS THE HOTTEST BITCH EVER IM A LESBIAN SO ITS ALL GOOD.

A weird bean thing that people in the mid-west/south eat a lot. Can be found throughout the US. Has no real flavor, but has a consistency similar to kidney beans.
Can you pass me the black eyed peas?

A former trio that decided to ruin their talent by adding a mediocre singer who can only bring ONE thing to their resume: commercial success.
Their first two albums prove that BEP had a whole lot of talent and, most importantly, ORIGINALITY.
Their third album had some good songs too, but now they're just bullshit. "boom boom pow" and "my humps"...WTF is this?
Old BEP FTW!
Black Eyed Peas fan: OMG IM SHAKIN MAH ASS TO DAT MY HUMPS SONG DAAAAAAYUM FERGIE DA BESSSS
