Frozen veggies in the slow cooker made me hate chili for a year

I been making chili with frozen mixed vegetables for about a year and it always came out mushy and watery. Last Tuesday my roommate watched me dump the bag in and said why are you using those, they release too much liquid. Switched to canned diced tomatoes and fresh green beans, cost about the same, whole batch came out way better. Anyone else cook with frozen stuff when fresh or canned works better for the same price?

Took you a whole year to figure that out, huh?

Read somewhere that frozen veggies hold like 3 times their weight in water, and @val223 youre right, took way too long to learn that lesson.
