We cut up some fruit to freeze and individually pack it in snack bags to be used in future smoothies and baking. This works well with berries and bananas. Extra homegrown veggies go to the office to share. The rest go in the ditch behind the house for the animals to enjoy. The ditch is dry when not raining so raccoons, possums, squirrels, foxes, deer, and birds all use it to travel and fruit and vegs disappear.
That is the problem, they end up a little mushy after you defrost them so you have to use them in something. If you are doing a smoothie you can go straight from freezer to blender which is convenient.

How do you defrost them if you plan to just eat them as is for a snack? Do you just leave them out to thaw?
