Commentary:
Fire Peashooter is a strange plant, apart from the obvious. Fire Peashooter does decent damage which increases at decent rate as it levels up. But the plant food effect is rather weak - 1/8th the damage of last week's plant of the week - Jalapeño. The ability to melt ice and immunity to freezing winds is great in Frostbite Caves. But there are also levels where the heat generated is minimal.

Bottom Line:
Fire Peashooter is a situational plant. This much is obvious. If cold is not a problem with a level, there are plenty of plants which cost less and do more damage.
