Split Pea and the Vegetarian Diet

Split peas are a type of legume derived from dried peas that have been peeled and split in half. They are rich in protein, fiber, and other nutrients, making them a popular choice in vegetarian and plant-based dishes. However, due to their high content of galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS), a type of FODMAP, they can cause digestive discomfort for some individuals when consumed in large amounts.
