- Association Vitamin C content decreased as peas matured.
- Association Thiamin content was not correlated with pea maturity.
- Observation One variety had unexpectedly low thiamin content.
- Intervention effect Post-vining delay generally reduced vitamin C content.
- Intervention effect Immature peas increased in thiamin content after post-vining delay, unlike mature peas.
- Observation Frozen peas retained 80% of original vitamin C content.
- Observation Frozen peas retained 90% of original thiamin content.
- Intervention effect Cooking caused further vitamin C loss.
- Observation At consumption, frozen peas retained about 55% of fresh vitamin C.
