Fresh, Frozen, or Canned? How do you buy your food?

Growing up, it was mostly home canned. So we had a lot of fresh in the summer, and canned in the winter. I never tried frozen til I was on my own. I prefer fresh, but it can be a challenge. I just moved in with a roommate who also likes veggies so I suspect we will have lots more fresh now.

Mostly fresh, but I keep cans of corn, green beans, and wax beans for occasional convenience in making dinner.

I grew up with fresh and frozen.

My wife grew up with canned.

So we do both:

Canned: green beans, wax beans, corn, beets

Frozen: corn, peas, lima beans, broccoli, spinach, brussel sprouts

fresh: corn, broccoli, spinach, carrots.
