Re: What do we think about canned veggies?
I mainly use fresh fruits and vegetables. I only get what is in season at the time. As a last resort I will use frozen. I don't use cans at all, they have preservatives in them and most cans contain BPA.

Re: What do we think about canned veggies?
I worry about the BPA in the lining of the cans. So I go for fresh or frozen.

Re: What do we think about canned veggies?
I guess I"m the one keeping the canned veggie companies in business! My 4 year old won't eat frozen, and fresh is a battle! We use what works.

Cans have BPA in them so I don't buy them.

Frozen is better then canned, but honestly, if you're getting them to eat veggies, I say do whatever.
exactly. sure fresh are best, frozen next best - but still...if canned is what they will eat - so be it. JMO.

Re: What do we think about canned veggies?
I used to give them to DD and then I found out they were lined with BPA and now I don't give her or us anything canned!

sometimes frozen is actually better than fresh.
and most canned veggies use too much sodium.
carrots I wouldn't do b/c a nice long roast or boil could get the desired softness.
but I absolutely HATE the taste of frozen peas. I don't really like them much at all, but if I do eat them, they need to be canned. I buy the organic canned peas or LeSeur.
for the longest, I was making frozen peas for luce. but now that he's on table foods and I have to eat it too, canned peas on his pasta a few times a month will not do too much harm.
Couldn't agree more about the peas. I love most frozen veggies, but can only do canned peas. I mostly give my boys fresh or frozen.
