  • 34: From the Archives - Frozen Food

    This week on Spot On!, we're revisiting the topic of frozen food from Season 2. As people across the country limit their trips to the grocery store, frozen food is seeing a resurgence.

    Frozen foods and frozen meals get a bad rep, but could they actually have the same or MORE nutritional value than fresh foods? Nutritionist Heather Mangieri joins us to explain how frozen foods are created and what you can stock up on.
