EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a green pea vendor's cry in the streets of London, circa 1800. The customary call of "Green Hastings!" echoes through the bustling marketplace, signaling the arrival of fresh, succulent green peas for sale. Green Hastings was the cry of the street traders offering their wares, a tradition that dates back to the 16th century. The term "hasten" meant to make something available quickly, and these vendors would hasten the sale of their peas by making this distinctive cry. The scene depicts a lively street trade, with the vendor expertly balancing a large basket of peas on his head while engaging with potential customers. The peas are displayed in a large tub, their vibrant green color contrasting against the worn wooden table and the rough, textured background of the cobblestone street. This historical photograph is a testament to the rich food culture and the vibrant street life of London during the 1800s. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting us back in time to experience the sights, sounds, and smells of a bygone era. Green Hastings' cry may no longer be heard on the streets of London, but the tradition lives on in the form of the delicious green peas that continue to be enjoyed by generations. This image is a precious reminder of the history and heritage of our food and the unique ways it has been traded and shared throughout the centuries.
