I was recently told that the vitamin loss is actually not as bad as everybody thinks... I think this needs some researching. <br />And of course, buying at the market has other main reasons than freshness and healthyness: short transportation, no packaging processes and supporting local farmers.yagahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09452763237214067585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3768819845725140776.post-53150832540679113032010-03-03T16:42:00.511+01:002010-03-03T16:42:00.511+01:00I buy our veggies mostly (not all of course, celer...I buy our veggies mostly (not all of course, celery roots and beets are best fresh and it is their season now) frozen! There are organic ones too. It is convenient because you only take out as much as you want and the rest goes straight back into the freezer. Nothing gets bad. Plus the brussels sprouts for example are green and fresh. AND the main reason is: frozen veggies have 60% more vitamins than "fresh" ones, because every hour after haarvesting is crucial, especially with air and sunlight the vitamins fade away. Plus it is 2-3 Euros for 1kg of pure veggies which is really a great price. I do this for 3 years now and can only recommend it! We stopped buying processed foods, so 1/4 of our big huge freezer is full of veggie bags<br /><br />Everybody has the wrong illusion, that "fresh" veggies from the market are the best you can get, but nutrotion- wise that is complete rubbish. No predjudices pplease, go out and try it! :-)Elisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04522517972644343453noreply@blogger.com
