As a child I remember eating sweet pea pods from a hedge around a neighbour's garden - they were delicious! I would love to grow plants for my grandchildren to enjoy as I am trying to encourage them to enjoy gardening and the magic of growing things for themselves ... now I read that the sweetpea pods are poisonous?? I find that rather alarming so just want confirmation ... is this really true? I certainly survived the experience without any after effects ... please clarify for me.
