Why Frozen Foods are Hotter than Ever!
If you haven't been in the frozen food aisle lately – now is a great time to go and discover all that's new, and why it has become a popular destination for today's shoppers.
- Frozen foods maintain optimal freshness – flash-freezing technology delivers "perfect preservation," freezing at the peak of freshness and maintaining flavor and nutritional value, right from the field or sea.
- Frozen foods are part of the food waste solution - they allow you to use only what you need, and put the rest back in the freezer. You have a longer shelf life, portion control, less food waste, and you save money.
- Frozen foods require little or no preparation - the picking, cleaning, slicing and dicing are already done. And your favorite foods are always in season.
- Today's frozen foods have been developed and prepared by expert chefs in test kitchens across the country – using real ingredients and rigorously evaluated by nutritionists and dietitians. It's Real Food…Just Frozen!
