Frozen is just not the same.  It has lost a lot of life force.  Just compare the
frozen thawed green bean with a good fresh green bean.  There is more to food
that just vitamins, minerals and carbos or what-have-you.  My solution is to shop
at the health food store and buy veggies that look *good*, not wilted, dull, or
stale.  Sometimes the veggies just gleam.  That's good stuff.  So what if you
pay twice as much for it.  It's still a small amount of money.
