of course not, but why is that the standard? Is it for taste? Nutritional value? Color? I don't usually blanch my veggies before freezing them, but freezing fruits and veggies at their peak ripeness is, as far as I have read, akin to eating fresh foods.

Just because they aren’t eating fast food doesn’t mean they are eating healthy

Healthy food spoils quickly, and takes too long to cook making it too expensive

I will say that when we were on food assistance in the States...

You know, you’re allowed to eat them before they go bad.

The fact that someone gets paid on a biweekly basis

6/17/19 10:08am

True... But generally they do. There are a variety of reasons for that.

That's news to me

6/17/19 10:23am

Holy cow...I live in a part of the world where everyone gets paid on the same

Everyone has a freezer. I freeze pounds of veggies once a month or so and cook

Not to be a contrarian, but doesn't freezing veggies make them no longer fresh?

Still healthier than canned veggies, I would imagine

6/17/19 10:24am

I agree there. I love frozen veggies. Pretty sure freezing them makes them no

And contribute to the additional Time and cost.

Yes. Huge time cost when you have to sit and watch your broccoli freeze.

Id rather spend time and money making healthy food than be fat

6/17/19 10:32am

Ok... Great... But we are talking about the people who have neither time nor $

The time thing is completely overblown. Everyone has the same 24 hours in the day. Money i might see as an argument
