Why is fresh better than frozen when it comes to food?

Or is it at all? I see these ads all the time talking about how there food is better because it isn’t frozen. (Example: Basically every Wendys ad.) But what’s the science behind all this?

As everyone else here already said, it really depends on the type of food and situation, but generally one isn’t better than the other.

I make a lot of smoothies and smoothie bowls and I always buy frozen berries instead of fresh. I can get them all year round for a fraction of the price and they get frozen at peak ripeness whereas fresh berries might not be fully ripe when buying them. And since they go into a smoothie, the texture changes from the ice crystals don’t matter. If anything, frozen is preferable over fresh to get that smoothie bowl texture.
