but frozen green beans are soggy. I love green beans, and I can find what the Giant calls "French" green beans (fresh) pretty much all year long. These are tenderer than the other fresh beans I can find. Even home-grown frozen beans I think are not very good.

It's pretty much impossible to get fresh peas, and even if you grow them yourself, it takes a zillion pods to make a serving. I think the frozen ones, esp. the "baby" peas are very good.
