Peas, like other vegetables, are canned or frozen at the peak of their freshness to preserve them. Canned peas are heated/cooked during processing and so are a darker drab green and a softer texture as opposed to frozen peas which are blanched to a bright green and close to raw. Frozen peas can be added to a dish at the last minutes of cooking/heating to preserve that color and texture.
