I didn't vote in this challenge, because basically, it didn't interest me. However, to critique isn't just on my interest.

Your photo has potential to be a very good one. As you mentioned there is a lot of graininess. Yes, shooting at 3200 ISO is probably the cause. Drop it to 100 or 200 for still shots. Also, in the post processing phase, you could use NeatImage or another program to get rid of the noise. Also a good Unsharp mask wouldn't hurt either.

The borders make this look like a polaroid. And that just isn't appealing.

The photo is also very flat. The colors seem to run together. If you used curves, this would really pop and the greens would really show and separate.

The composition of this is really good and I just love the idea. You have a good eye as to what can capture interest. You just need a bit more to make the images pop and capture the attention and imagination of others.

Hope this helps.

Very cute take on the challenge but I think the quality is too grainy. Not sure if you mean to do that though.

I wish that's what peas tasted like! I like this photo, kind of an illustration feel to it which adds to the humor.

Idea is really great but feels like its bean sortage of time for set up. Would be more appealing fresher peas and sweets are bit squashed...also image feels bit too grainy.

Oh such a shame - this is ruined by its frame. The image is good and I like the concept and the soft focus very much.
