Reply #21: When I was little that's the only time we ate fresh

Vegtables were more expensive in the winter time since they had to be shipped from down south. We were poor when I was in early elementary school so my mother couldn't really afford fresh fruit and vegtables. She said that the California stuff was inferior anyway. We ate frozen vegtables then. I think canned veggies were cheaper but my mother didn't like them.
