📊 Nutrition at a Glance
How the form changes the number: preparation is the real variable across this family. Boiling leaches a meaningful share of soluble oxalate into the cooking water — commonly 30-50% for plant foods — while raw and dry-heat forms keep essentially all of it, so the same base food can land in different brackets depending on how it is cooked. This page tracks Peas (Green) at 2 mg per serving, at the low end of the family. Related forms in this family: Peas (Snow) (20 mg).
