    Any it depends what you use them for.  As viv0147 has said they can be yuk!  I buy the already frozen ones as I often judge it incorrectly with fresh ones.  They can be a bit mushy when defrosted so I tend to use them in smoothies or as a mash with seasoning.  If partly defrosted they slice well, to put on chilli, but again I wouldn't leave them too long as may be mushy, some are better than others.  I think that fresh would taste better, but I find this easy and cost effective.
