Some cowpeas can be eaten in the snap stage, with varying degrees of quality. Not much different than trying to eat a dry bean variety in snap stage; maybe good, maybe not. Those bred for use as pods will be slower to develop fiber.
"Kashi Kanshan" and "Kaveri" look interesting, and hopefully at least one of them is different from the ubiquitous "Stickless Wonder". I've ordered seed for both, but won't be able to plant them until 2023 due to trials of other yardlong beans already planned for this year.
