Your question indicates the following to me...
You are not a cook
Nothing is as delicious on a cold winter's day as a bowl of homemade split-pea soup made with leftover ham from whatever holiday...Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter. Pair it with a nice salad and some homemade bread and there is nothing finer m'dear..nothing! :)
by Mr Fixit on May 25th, 2009
I enjoy it myself. Still, each to their own mate:)
by -NUNYA-- on May 25th, 2009
Agreed!! I have tried it from many different places and I just can't see the "good" in it. +5

I want to like it, really I do. I like ham and white bean soup just fine, but split pea soup always seems gritty to me, looks like a scene from "The Exorcist," and is as much fun to swallow as Pepto bismol.

No :)

Bad split-pea soup is bland and gritty. Good split-pea soup can attain such a sublimity as to cause the gods to skip their regular ambrosia.

Not when Ec makes it yo...

If you tasted mine, I think you would like it! Maybe you are having it from the can, and not home made from scratch? Do you know how it is made?
Sometime, just once, have a bowl of true homemade pea soup by an excellent cook, and give it a chance. If you will don't like it, so be it. :-))

Split pea soup is one of my favorites.
by dea_ex_machina on May 25th, 2009
Nope.. you are not right - and millions of dutch people would agree with me on that one!

My mom's pea soup is So Good. It isn't a matter of being right, just a matter of you are now entitled to my opinion! lol Just kidding. I love it.
by uncacal on May 25th, 2009
I love pea soup if it is well made. I make a good one, if I say so myself. Have you ever hsd home-made? I'm guessing that you have only had some inferior canned product.
by rigby on October 29th, 2009
not disgusting - yummy esp with blueberry muffins right out of the oven - omg - i am hungry
by Wind in the Willow on October 29th, 2009
Only if you don't like the taste of peas, right?
by Rufus_T_Firefly on October 29th, 2009
As far as I'm concerned, there's a very good reason why they used pea soup as the vomit in The Exorcist.
by Galeanda on October 29th, 2009
Not at all. I love pea soup and make several kinds, including a terrific one with rice and cumin, a sort of African spicy pea soup. They re delicious
by The Crimson Magician on October 27th, 2009
Split-pea soup is like an angel saying "this came out of the gutters of heaven, will thou eat it?"
Its good for some people, its bad for others lol
I personally like it somewhat XD
by cellarmaster1 on May 30th, 2009
Mmmmm. I love it with a big ol' chunk of ham chopped up in it, and hot biscuits! But if you don't like it, thats okay. More for the rest of us! How about that yucky canned cream of MUSHroom stuff?! Bleeaaacch!
by Elllie on May 30th, 2009
I like it.

Up until the point that it became obvious that I was allergic to all legumes and not just soybeans, split pea soup was one of my very favorite foods. Thanks for making me salivate over something I can't have anymore.
by reddonna on May 30th, 2009
No, no, no, it's wonderful :)
by katydid15 on May 25th, 2009
You are absolutely right on that one.
by Sparky on May 25th, 2009
My mom makes terrific pea soup. It was and will always be one of my favorites.
But, not everyone likes split pea soup. So, if you don't like it, you don't have to have it.
by Merfish on May 30th, 2009
No, I have always like split pea soup.
by DudeLer 2 on May 30th, 2009

by Sharona Life is a Tale Told by an Idiot on May 30th, 2009
Only if you're watching The Exorcist.
by Timjon on June 28th, 2009
No, I love it, especially in cold weather.

I cant stand peas, Although I wish I could. The soup does smell great cooking, I really cant stand the taste though.
