Frozen veggies are actually nutritionally better than fresh unless you have picked them yourself.


They’re generally cheaper, because there is no loss to damage and spoilage, and they are readily transported from wherever they are grown cheaply.

Compare a bunch of fresh spinach, and how it cooks down to a tiny blob, compared to a brick of frozen spinach.

Exactly.
Unless I grow it myself or get it cheap at the farmer’s market, I buy frozen veggies. Frozen fruit too, all winter.

We pick and dry apples but when those are gone it’s raisins and frozen fruit. One minute at 10% power in the microwave and we have a decent fruit salad.
