I take that was a big fat no!



Got one from the caravan and camping show last year, it was cheap as and works a treat the Mrs Cryovac seals all kinds of shit when we go away meats, gravy all sorts. It comes with about 20 bags with a valve on them for extracting the air out.

IF I remember, I'll look what brand it is.

All good now, went to Costco yesterday and bought one, does the trick and came with a heap of bags etc. I purchased a box of extra bags and film too.

I had a 5kg whole scotch fillet that I need to cut into steaks, I wanted to ensure that they get frozen properly.

Got one years ago at Harvey Norman.
Think it was just branded Food Saver
Worked a treat


I have a food saver and I recommend it. Sometimes I have an issue with getting a good seal on soups and casseroles and the like, but find if I freeze them in a container first then seal in the bag a day or so later I get a good seal. Bought bulk rolls online for value. Fantastic for camping trips, food seems to keep for a long time.
