Eat your frozen fruits and vegetables. Which ones are as good or even better than fresh...


There are lots of healthy fruits and veggies ripe for the picking - in the frozen food aisle. 

Researchers at the University pitted fresh against frozen and found that some of our favorites are actually even better in frozen form. 

Fresh fruit and vegetables have a long way to travel, especially at this time of year, to make it to your table. Many of them lose their nutritional edge in the journey. Good frozen picks include strawberries, broccoli, green beans, corn, cauliflower and peas. While frozen blueberries and spinach are just fine, those two did have slightly lower vitamin and mineral content than their fresh counterparts.
