I'm tracking my food intake carefully and am using the USDA site as my
source.  But I can't find one particlar item on it:

This is what we in Australia call 'snow peas', 'snap peas' or 'sugar-snap
peas'.  They are simply ordinary garden peas eaten whole and raw in the
pod when the seed is very small: 1-3mm diameter.  The bulk of the food is,
in fact, the pod.

Can anyone help:  I'm interested only in the broad macronutrient (protein,
fat, carbs, fibre) composition of 100g or similar significant quantity (I
have a per-pod analysis from an Australian source, but the rounding when
I'm eating 20 - 30 pods in a meal could lead to significant errors).
