    Bilateral agreement on most important political issue of our generation

    The simple notion of adding peas to guacamole has caused a Twitter storm, with Barack Obama taking to the social media platform to protest against the non-classic ingredient.

    The New York Times (NYT) tweeted a link to a green pea guacamole recipe in which the writer described the addition as "radical" but also "completely obvious after you taste it".


    VINE: Jimmy Fallon asks Jeb Bush if he puts peas in guacamole
    The president of the United States quickly disagreed tweeting: "Respect the NYT, but not buying the peas in guac. Onions, garlic, hot peppers ... classic."

    In a rare bipartisan move, one of Mr Obama's White House challengers, Jeb Bush, agreed, himself tweeting: "You don't put peas in guacamole."

    Last month comedian Jimmy Fallon failed to persuade Mr Bush peas were a worthy guacamole inclusion.

    The Republican presidential candidate told Fallon: "We don't do peas in guacamole my man."

    The Republican Party of Texas weighed in on the debate tweeting the NYT "declared war on Texas" by being pro-peas.

    Other Twitter users were not so diplomatic. One suggested peas in guacamole was a hate crime.

    The publication's food editor has sent a tweet saying Mr Obama "will come around".

    A week ago the Supreme Court made gay marriage legal on a federal level, and today the civil rights movement moves on to the next bloody socio-political battleground: recognition of the right of peas to be included in guacamole.

    You think Texas is worried about peas? They are too worried about beans in their chili!

    Peas are inferior, it's an insult to Avocado.

    What you add to your guacamole in the privacy of your own home is your business, but I personally can't accept the addition of peas on moral grounds.

    Does it not say in the Book of Common Prayer, "Give peas in our time, O Lord"?

    Why would you add peas? Guacamole in the cook books never included peas.
    What is with my culinary freedoms?

    I've known since June 2011 not to doubt Obama on these matters. Obama: ‘You Shouldn’t Put Ketchup On A Hot Dog’ POTUS gets it right again.

    This seemed like insanity to me until I discovered that Chicago-style hot dogs use actual slices of tomato.

    How to make guacamole

    Step 1: get avocado
    Step 2: throw that shit in the trash because it's fucking nasty
    Step 3: get bean dip
    I'm the root of all that is evil, yeah, but you can call me cookie.

    Kosher pickle spear is another variety of gherkin (US: pickle)?

    Are sport peppers some kind of pickled chilli?

    I assume neon relish is just a bright pickle relish.

    Yesterday, A "peas in Guacamole" supporter was denied service at a restaurant because the owners hold a strong belief that putting peas in guacamole is a sin against nature.

    UPDATE: The Restaurant is now being picketed by other pro-pea supporters carrying signs saying "Give Peas a chance!"

    All we ask is that you give peas a chance!

    I clicked the POTUS twitter and when he did his AMA about the ACA the other day the first question response on his twitter was "Why did Bush do 9/11?"

    Lol.

    Replace step 3 with goat cheese and we have a deal.

    What we should really fear is people trying to get bakers to make a cake with pea guacamole on it.

    You disgust me. Guac is proof of a benevolent creator, you can't reject it!
