The burger patty we sealed showed no signs of freezer burn — but note that the bags are not recommended for freezer use, as they might open up — and it was fairly gentle when sealing blackberries. Vacuum seal bags can be used for food taken out or for the food that you want to preserve as long as possible in the fridge. It helps prevent most food from going stale as quickly as it would in a non-airtight container, and it also helps prevent freezer burn, which affects taste and texture. They’re perfect for storing food in the fridge or freezer but can be used in the microwave - or placed directly into a pan of simmering water for extra convenient cooking. Our embossed vacuum pouches are not compatible with vacuum chamber machines such as Henkelman or MultiVac.

Lockable: For your convenience and ease of use, some new or preowned reusable food vacuum bags are created with a zip lock.
