Does home grown really taste better?

Had the first of my summer cabbage last night and had to say I was totally underwhelmed, if I had boiled it instead of steamed it it would have had no flavor at all and as it was it had almost none Confused I mean it couldnt have been fresher, and it looked the picture of succulence but flavor, nope, none that I could find Sad

i think carrots definatly taste better home grown or organic ones in the shop .
i dont go alot on frozen veg, take frozen sprouts (uggghhh)what a pile of poo they end up flavourless and soggy .
it tastes better using freash veg and to steam them ,especially cauliflower or broccoli .

I do like frozen veg its quicker for a start.but fresh veg does always taste so much better .i love fresh cabbage and like gb said steamed veg holds the flavour in even more.

We are now picking potatoes,lettuce and tomatos and it tastes so much nicer than what you get in shops.
