The reason why is because the transportation and shipping is the main cause of the reduction of the nutritional values in the fresh food. For example, green peas lose 77% of vitamin C when stored for seven days. On the other hand, if you keep the food frozen, it retains most of its nutrition. So when you go to a grocery store, don't think frozen food are outclassed by fresh food, just because they're easier to use and costs less. Because sometimes that's not always true. :)

They maybe fresh, but the long process of getting them from the fields to the stores depleted some of their nutritional value.
