This photo was taken at the Patel Brothers, an Indian grocery store in Jackson Heights, Queens. The grocery store carries some of the most unique and interesting food items including this vegetable, which I have never seen before. I think I know what it is but I'm not 100% sure.As you can see in the photo, each pod carries only one pea-looking seed. The pod is light and furry, green in color and is about the size of a small olive. Can you guess what it is?

I came here expecting bagels! :-) I'll ask my visiting Indian friend what this is when they return from golf. He should know.
that;s an amazing photo
Edamame?
Uhmm I'm not the expert here around but I like the photo that's really well done :-)
looks like monster-pea :D
I have not a clue...they look green and good for you! I love the photo and how you captured the fuzz! Nice!
Now that's a food item that requires real work by the hungry/food preparer. One pea per pod.
Have no idea what it is, or if it is something to eat or plant.
I think it's fresh garbanzo beans or chick peas. I'm not 100% sure.
What do you think??
Garbanzo is what we call them in the Philippines...I think. It's been a while.
no ideas about what it is...
but so beautiful in the photo.

Fantastic photo. I know it's not broad beans or edamame, but chickpea sounds good to me!
