Many people's childhood memories of boiled frozen peas have turned them off (for life) of all frozen vegetables. Too bad....since, this is a great way to get a variety (and rainbow) of produce into your weekly diet.
We also know that people who include frozen produce in their weekly intake have overall better quality diets and reach their recommended daily veg/fruit targets than those who only eat fresh.
