For example some fruits like banana’s and grapes taste better frozen, does that take away the nutrition?
NOPE, as a matter of fact many frozen foods are healthier than non frozen. Vegetables are a fine example of this as well as fruit. The food is picked and washed an frozen, usually all in the same day if not within hours. Fresh food is picked and taken to a warehouse, then shipped to a wholesaler and picked up by a market and then into the store.
This can take from a couple of days to a week depending upon where the store is located in reference to the grower. All this time the food is loosing it’s nutritional value. So fresh is not always healthier as frozen can actually be fresher vitamin wise.
