Why do we overlook frozen veggies when they're cheap and tasty? This is part of a bigger trend where we dismiss practical options. Like how we avoid store brands even if they work just as well. Frozen food is frozen right after picking, so it's often fresher than stuff that's been sitting around. We need to get past the idea that only fresh is good.
My freezer is full of frozen peas and corn now. I used to avoid them too, but @derek_martinez98 has a point about them being frozen right away. The big win for me is not having to worry about them going bad before I use them. It cuts down on waste, which is where the real savings happens. The taste is fine for soups and stir fries.
