In many traditional frozen or pre-prepared meals, salt or thickeners are added for preserving or for flavour, which also helps to bind fluid. Be Fit Food meals are low in sodium (less than 120mg/100g) and contain no added thickeners. As a result, once you heat the meals in the microwave, the vegetables release fluid. You can simply drain this fluid before consuming your meal and then place the meal into a bowl.There are 4-12 varieties of vegetables in each of our meals. Vegetables are over 95% water, so given the quantity of vegetables we have in our meals there is going to be some water content in the cooking process. We also try to slightly undercook the vegetables. This allows for the vegetables to then not become overcooked when the consumer heats them in the microwave, thereby losing even more water.At Be Fit Food we prepare meals from farm fresh ingredients daily and then freeze them to preserve the DNA of the food rather than relying on gassing methods to keep the food ‘’fresh’’. We also freeze our meals for food safety. We consider that delivering food frozen (approximately -17 degrees Celsius) to be much safer for our customers, particularly in regards to temperature control for delivery to multiple states across Australia.
