Save Food, Keep It Fresh With FoodSaver Storage Bags
Reduce food waste and help food last longer in the fridge, freezer or pantry with FoodSaver’s storage bags, available on eBay. These bags are vacuum sealed and designed to keep food fresher, tastier and preserved for longer.
About FoodSaver Storage Bags
FoodSaver was launched in 1987 in the United States and the brand was the pioneer of vacuum sealing systems. They have many benefits, including:
- Saving you money: you can store meat for up to six months, and you can cut your portion sizes up, so you don’t have to use all your meat in one hit.
- Protects your food from mould and bacteria as the bags remove oxygen – without oxygen, mould and bacteria don’t survive
- Save time: Because you can store your food fresh, you save time having to go shopping before every meal.
- Protects your food from dehydration and freezer burn, which is when water seeps into the food
- Extends the life of your food – lasting up to five times as long than it would in plastic containers or bags
- Food stays fresh – frozen food can have a shelf life of up to three years, compared to non-vacuum sealed food which lasts 6-12 months. In the fridge, it’ll last up to two weeks rather than one to three days.
- Saves space – vacuum sealed bags have no air in them, so you’ll be able to stack them easily to save space.
With the FoodSaver, you can even vacuum seal liquids, so if you have leftover soup or spaghetti source, it’s a great way to put these away for fresh eating in future.
Top tips
Clean the food before storing it as this will help extend the life of it even longer. Clean down any surfaces to eliminate the possibility of bacteria, and to maximise the freshness of your food, write the date on the vacuum-sealed bag so you can keep track of how old your items are.
While you’re shopping Food Saver, you’ll also find a range other storage solutions available, including food storage containers, and freezer bags. Don’t forget you also need the vacuum sealer machine.
