Most normal food can actually take freezing pretty well, and freezing should obviate the need for preservatives… what frozen foods are you thinking of that have preservatives in them?
Most frozen pizza does, I believe. I seem to remember ice cream having preservatives too. I think that preservatives are more likely to be in frozen food as the number of processing steps that it’s been through increase.
I’ll check later today on the pizza and ice cream, it’s been long enough that I don’t have a clear memory.

I bet that’s googleable.
You’re right! http://www.redbaron.com/pan-pizza.aspx—The dough contains TBHQ. That’s the only one, so it’s relatively reasonable as far as preservatives go.
I looked at several varieties of ice cream, and none that I found had preservatives. Lots and lots of emulsifiers, but no preservatives.
