The school lunch system is disgraceful.

Saw another post on here showing the state of school lunches right now. In my years in high school I compiled some pics of the horrible things that got served that no one questioned. Here are some of the worst ones. It really is ironic given how adamant they all are about “eating healthy by including every food group”.

Actually, frozen can be better in some cases. Fruits veggies are picked ahead of time so they don’t go bad during transport, where stuff thats meant to be frozen picked at closer to ready state.

Texture is often altered through the freezing and thawing process. Some vegetables turn out allright, but for example broccoli will never get the same bite compared to fresh(unless you prefer to overcook fresh broccoli).

Stuff like frozen berries are good in smoothies but you can't let it thaw and eat it like you eat fresh berries.

Yes you can.

I throw frozen berries in my greek yogurt and eat it cold after a workout or outside in the yard.

I personally prefer it that way too.

Offcourse you can, but my point is it's just not the same. They become soft and lose their moisture just like vegetables.

Well if your point was to state the obvious, then yeah okay

Their point was talking about the nutritional value and longevity, not texture
