🥦 What is frozen food?
Frozen food is any food kept cold enough to stay safe and last longer — from vegetables to full meals. Freezing preserves food quality and nutritional value.
🍲 What ingredients are in frozen food?
Frozen food often includes whole ingredients like vegetables, meat, pasta, or rice — just kept very cold. The main ingredients are typically the same as fresh versions, just preserved through freezing.
🌿 Do frozen foods have added flavourings?
Some frozen foods include sauces, herbs, or spices to add flavour — check the label to see what’s included. Plain frozen ingredients usually have no added seasonings.
🧪 Are there additives in frozen food?
Freezing helps preserve food, but some products may also include stabilisers, thickeners, or colourings. Many frozen foods contain minimal additives since freezing itself is a preservation method.
📦 How should frozen food be stored?
Frozen food is sealed to stay fresh — keep it frozen until ready to cook, and follow the instructions. Proper storage maintains food safety and quality.
💚 Is frozen food healthy?
Yes, frozen food can be very healthy, especially plain frozen vegetables, fruits, and proteins. Freezing preserves nutrients, and many frozen options are just as nutritious as fresh alternatives.
