freeze dried vegetable powders

[nimbinpaul]

I came across freeze dried vegetable powders at the health food store today. Does anyone have any experience with them, are there any pitfalls. I know that you cant beat fresh veg, but they claim that a lot of the nutrients and the fibre is still intact in them, ok as a convenience thing in protein shakes???

I use onion powder as a spice. There are quite a lot of carbs in it and I assumed it lacks fibre, but maybe not. Check there are no added ingredients.

Do the powders have nutritional information printed? I tried googling it and couldn't come up with anything...
