The stuff is called Fruit Fresh, I think.  Yes, you can use some lemon
juice.

Subject: [NAFEX] Freezing peaches

I froze a small amount of peaches (chopped up and mixed with sugar) this 
year, just to test it. It was only about a pint or so. I've been 
freezing other fruit (strawberries, raspberries, etc.) to put on my 
oatmeal in the morning, but that stuff is dry enough that I can keep it 
frozen until use, and then just break off what I need.

With the peaches, though, I put the bag in the refrigerator to thaw 
first (since I couldn't separate them otherwise). OK, that worked,... 
except that the whole thing turned the most putrid brown color! I mean, 
it really looked disgusting.

So how do I avoid that? I've seen a product that's supposed to keep 
apples from browning (I can't remember the name of it right now). Will 
that work with peaches, too? Or can I just add some lemon juice? It's 
not a big deal, since it's only me eating the stuff,... but even I'd 
feel better if it looked a little more appetizing.  :-)

Thanks,
