Plausible, but I can only find the one poor citation I've already added, even after a cursory look on Usenet. Equinox 21:42, 24 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Hmm. I've heard that one a bit, but I don't know whether it's primarily a spoken term. I've more often heard cheese and rice. --EncycloPetey 21:46, 24 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
Now cited, but it looks like the definition could use work. Two of the cites take the form "Jesus Christ, peas and rice", so I don't think they're using peas and rice is a euphemism, even an ironic one. The third one does seem euphemistic, however. (Unfortunately, b.g.c. has gazillions of hits for actual peas-and-rice dishes, so it's really hard to find representative uses of the interjection.) —RuakhTALK 17:00, 27 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

RFV passed, but I've replaced the definition with {{rfdef}}. —RuakhTALK 12:44, 22 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
