10 reasons to freeze

1. Locked-in freshness

Many products, such as peas and fish, are frozen the moment they’re picked or caught, which effectively locks in the key nutrients.

2. Eat out of season

You can enjoy British foods that have a short natural season – such as summer berries and broadbeans - all year round.

3. Less waste

Freezing keeps many products in optimum condition for up to a year, which means you’re much less likely to have to throw away uneaten food.

4. Portion control

‘Individually quickfrozen’ technology means that every grain, berry and pea is frozen separately, allowing you to use exactly the amount you need.

5. Cater to all tastes

With the Waitrose range of frozen vegetarian meals, you’ll never be caught out again by non-meat eaters – there’s a delicious meal to suit everyone.

6. Impromptu guests

When friends drop round, pop a tray of Waitrose party snacks in the oven for an impressive spread in no time. You’ll be the host with the most!
