The Myth That Fresh Vegetables Always Beat Frozen Ones

The freezer aisle has been unfairly slandered for years.

We treat fresh as automatically better, but frozen vegetables can genuinely beat the fresh ones on your shelf.

Frozen veg is usually picked at peak ripeness and frozen within hours, locking in nutrients before they can degrade.

So-called fresh produce may spend days in transit and storage, quietly losing vitamins the whole way to your basket.

Frozen also means less waste and no rushing to use it before it wilts. Keep both, and stop feeling guilty about the freezer bag.
