Fresh veggies are best but canned and frozen are okay, too


Frozen and canned vegetables are picked at the peak of ripeness and generally processed right away, which helps maintain nutrients. — Dreamstime/TNS

When the variety of fresh veggies is limited, I buy frozen. I do, however, like to keep store-purchased canned veggies in my pantry and use them in tight squeezes. I am confused by statements that canned veggies are highly nutritious and comparable to frozen. Please explain.

Comparing nutrition labels does not seem to support this statement. Please clarify.
