Amazon.com Review

For use only with a FoodSaver vacuum sealing system, these FoodSaver bags bring industrial technology to food storage. With their large 1-gallon capacity, they'll store more than a couple of helpings, plus the bags and their contents can be frozen, boiled, or microwaved. But it's the FoodSaver vacuum sealer that will heat and seal these transparent holders, as it draws all the air out of these bags, locking in freshness while preventing freezer burn. The box contains 15 bags (each one measuring 14 by 11 inches)--enough for all that zucchini the neighbors keep bringing over from their garden. --Tony Mason

5.0 out of 5 stars Easier than the Rolls, August 12, 2003

If you want to store larger things and you have the foodsaver vacsaver this is the way to go. Cost wise its pretty much the same as the roll but you don't have to mess with cutting and sealing. Cutting it straight can be a real pain at times. Unless your doing something really custom these should be big enough. I got the rolls and the gallon bags and discovered most of the time I ended up cutting the rolls to the size of the bags.

I bought a Foodsaver vacuum pkg machine many yrs ago & use it when I come home from grocery to vacuum pack items for freezer. These are great to vacuum pack/seal meats/veggies/just about anything in freezer for literally months & even years as no air gets inside pkg if done correctly. I also pre-freeze anything juicy or soft on non-stick foil, then take off foil & vacuum pack in these bags while they are still frozen. I always keep different sizes of bags on hand for use. Regular plastic bags, even tho labelled for freezer, can't even compare. Perfect for those who hunt
& fish to vacuum pack catch, altho it's also better just as any fresh meat to freeze solid 1st before vacuum pkging.

I got these because they were on sale and I wanted to see if having a pre-made bag was worth the time savings as compared to making bags out of rolls. In short, if you use your FoodSaver a lot, it probably isn't worth it. I keep a roll in my FoodSaver at all times anyway, so I only save the time it takes to seal the one end. And being able to custom size my bags does save a lot of bag material and, consequently, drop the cost. I'm glad I made the experiment, but I'll stick to the rolls.
