LOL, very ick. But I'd take those in a heartbeat over those incredibly disturbing looking ones in jars/cans!! hahahaha.
Actually because we bought the freezer, we definitely have more space for the frozen than storing fresh in the fridge. Because in the fridge we generally have a few packages of Quorn, a package/box of mushrooms, whatever opened things haven't been finished (like cans of beans and such), and a couple containers of leftovers, maybe some other item or two for lunch stuff. And usually I have some chocolate pudding (at least, what we call pudding in the US!) in there. If we've recently had Mexican, there's also lettuce and the open rice pkg, and we get one of the fresh veg mixes they sell, too, to make it, so there's also that. And the drawer is strictly for cheese, lol. We're cheese freaks. Or well, I am, and I've kind of made him into one. ;P So it's usually... not exactly full but, not very roomy. We use the bottom, large, drawer of the freezer for all the veggies. ^^ And buying from the [large chain] grocery store is def not supporting the locals, so fresh vs frozen totally doesn't matter in that regard. Otherwise, yeah, I can see that being a good reason to do so.
Ooh, I've never heard of that, nice. Yeah that's a big combo of specific types of cooking, but actually not so big in our house. For soups, definitely, and certain stuff...but we just don't tend to do that much. Our specific staple, like I said earlier, is onions, garlic, mushrooms. LoL. Yeah, we're kinda odd, but it works for us! ;P
