No, they're not. However, you can probably substitute the black beans in the recipe with no ill effects. Just be sure to drain and rinse them really well.
Black eyed peas (besides being a fun, but defunct band) are little whitish legumes with a little black ring around what would be their belly buttons.
Try the dried beans/peas section. It's hard to find canned black eyed peas north of the mason-dixon line.

No.
Black beans are all-black, and black-eyed peas are light brown with a black dot that is the "eye" in the name.

Yeah, it will be a chewy texture, but sometimes it almost just melts away. We add it to pinto beans with lots of onion, garlic etc. Just chop the salt pork and add it at the beginning, but after you chop it, rinse it real good or else it will be really salty. Doing it that way works real good with black eyed peas too.

No, they are related but they are different types of beans. Both good sources of protein.
