Wasabi Peas Sighted On-orbit

Editor's note: If you look at the bottom of this recent ISS image with Thomas Reiter you will see a can of Wasabi peas. I don't know if Emeril Lagasse has anything to do with these wonderful snack items being on-orbit, but let me tell you, if I were going to spend a few months up there, they'd be on my shopping list too. I'd also have a collection of hot sauces not unlike that can be seen on the Service Module wall between Ed Lu and Yuri Malenchenko - especially the big squeeze bottle of Sriracha.
