WASHINGTON, Jan. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — “AFFI appreciates the acknowledgement that frozen fruits and vegetables can be good options, and adds the clarification: frozen fruits and vegetables are consistently just as good as fresh options.

Frozen produce often contains the same or better nutrient levels as fresh and has a longer shelf life that prevents food waste, making them a very affordable option.

Plus, pre-portioned prepared frozen meals directly address the DGA’s call for attention to portion size. It’s time for fresh thinking about frozen foods – their convenience makes eating whole foods easy for real American families.”
