Answers: are they better than garden peas out the freezer?

they are ok, but frozen peas are much better for you as they have a higher vitamin coontent

i think they are better then out of thr frezzer thats for sure

Frozen fruits and vegetables tend to be better nutritionally, however green beans out of a tin are good for you too! They're just not as good.

Yes they are fresher.

i am guessing so

yeah i guess...im just bored :)

they are kinda good for you, but if you grow them yourself they taste better and you know that they haven't been sprayed with dangerous sprays.

tinned green beas will have a much higher level of salt, so stick with the frozen peas.

Green beans in a tin have very little nutritional value. Frozen veges have a bit more if you don't boil them to death or microwave them. Fresh and crisp are best.

They cant be good for you. The minute you cut or peel a vegetable it looses 70% of all vitamins and minerals. Eat Fresh..... Always the best for you!

GREAT QUESTION!

Many people wonder if frozen and canned vegetables are as nutritious as fresh vegetables. The answer to this question depends on both the time between the harvesting of the vegetable and the canning and freezing process. Generally, vegetables are canned or frozen immediately upon harvest when their nutrient content is at its peak.

The way vegetables are prepared at home can also affect the nutrient content. Vegetables of any type (fresh, frozen, or canned) that are boiled in large amounts of water for long periods of time lose much of their nutritional content compared with vegetables that are lightly steamed.

Vegetables fresh from the farm or just picked are more nutritious than their frozen or canned counterparts, BUT frozen and canned vegetables are an acceptable nutritional alternative.

Just be mindful of the amount of salt added to canned vegetables; try to buy those without added salt. And, don't overcook any vegetables
