Washington / DC. (gov) A number of various causes are recognized in March. Two of these seem to go hand in hand, or hand to mouth – National Nutrition Month and National Frozen Food Month. The goal of the first is make consumers aware of just how easy it is to eat healthy meals. And one of the ways this is possible is because of frozen food. Developed by Clarence Birdseye, the first commercially available items were quick-frozen fish fillets in 1925. Frozen food became increasingly popular as refrigerated freight trains and trucks were able to carry it to all parts of the nation. Today in the U.S., some 690 packaged frozen food manufacturers produce nearly 32 billion USD worth of heat and eat products – according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
