What People Are Saying
Tips from FoodSaver
Users
®
"Every week I make bagel and English muffins with
Canadian ham, egg, cheese or sausage and vacuum
package them with my FoodSaver
in different individual
®
sections. That way my four boys can take out what they
need to start their day with a good breakfast."

"I am on the Weight Watchers
diet. I measure out my
®
portioned meals and then seal them individually.
I then mark them with the point value so that I can
easily heat up a meal or snack with just the number
of points I am able to use. It saves me a lot of time
because I don't have to stop and figure out points every
time I want to eat."
Sandi P.
Boise, ID
"I seal trip maps in my FoodSaver
®
for use on bicycling
and kayaking trips. I can clothespin the sealed bag to
my handlebars or slip it under my deck rigging and have
a clean dry map for the duration of my trip. When I get
home I can file them to reuse.
I freeze and seal an alcohol water mixture in my
FoodSaver
bags and wrap them around the bowl of
®
my stand mixer with a velcro strap. This creates an ice
jacket for the bowl to rapidly cool the contents
I am mixing in the bowl.
For shipping packages, I seal all but the last ½ inch
of the bag edge, inflate the bag and quickly seal it
to trap air in the bag to make inflatable pillows for
shipping padding."

"When I know I'll be painting with the same color again
soon, I just vacuum package the brush. It keeps the
brush supple and I don't have to wash it out each time."

"Mix together your favorite cookie recipe and
freeze the cookie dough. When you would like some
homemade cookies, take out the number you want and
bake. You will impress your friends when you always
have cookies on hand... well, in your FoodSaver
®
Bags!"
William B.
Antwerp, NY
"I make a small pouch about 3 inches long from a
FoodSaver
®
Roll. I put the amount of powdered formula
needed to make a bottle in the pouch, vacuum package
it, and write the date it was done. Then when we are
out and about, I cut off the corner and pour it in the
baby bottle of water. I can keep the powdered formula
pouches in the diaper bag for a few weeks if needed."

"I was married in 2000 and I 'food-saved' the entire top
of my wedding cake. I missed the opportunity to eat it
on my first anniversary so we broke it open for our fifth
in 2005. The cake and the frosting were as moist and
delicious as the day it went into the freezer five years
prior.
I tell people about your product all the time and
I love my FoodSaver
®
! Thanks!

FoodSaver
Bags and Rolls
®
The design of FoodSaver
®
Bags and Rolls features
special channels that enable the efficient and complete
removal of air. The multi-ply construction makes
them an especially effective barrier to oxygen and
moisture, preventing freezer burn. FoodSaver
Bags and
®
Rolls come in a variety of sizes.
IMPORTANT: To avoid possible illness, do not reuse
bags after storing raw meats, raw fish or greasy foods.
Do not reuse bags that have been microwaved or
simmered.
FoodSaver
Vacuum Packaging Canisters
®
FoodSaver
Canisters are simple to use and ideal for
®
vacuum packaging delicate items such as muffins and
other baked goods, liquids and dry goods.
The canisters come in a variety of styles and sizes and
can be used on the countertop, in the refrigerator or in
the pantry.
The Quick Marinator is an excellent way to marinate
foods in minutes instead of hours. Any FoodSaver®
Canister can be used for marinating, but we recommend
the square or rectangular shapes because less marinade
is needed. Canisters should not be used in the freezer.
The stackable, lightweight containers are a convenient
option to store make-ahead meals, leftovers and snacks.
Note: Allow hot foods to cool to room temperature
before vacuum packaging. Otherwise contents may
bubble up out of canister.
FoodSaver
Jar Sealers
®
With FoodSaver
Jar Sealers you can vacuum package
®
food in Mason jars. They come in both regular and
wide- mouth sizes to fit most Mason jars. If you are
planning to store Mason jars in the freezer, use straight
walled (no shoulders), freezer-safe Mason jars. Allow
room between contents and lid for normal expansion of
liquids.

System
Note: Always pre-soak new metal lids. Bring water
to a boil, then turn off. Pre-soak lids 5-10 minutes.
FoodSaver
Jar Sealers are designed to fit Ball
®
Kerr
Mason jars.
®
FoodSaver
Universal Lid
®
The FoodSaver
Universal Lid is a wonderful kitchen
®
accessory to vacuum package foods in their original
containers. It helps foods such as sauces, peanuts and
coffee stay fresh longer. It works great with metal cans,
thick glass jars and rigid plastic containers.
The Universal Lid comes in two sizes – 4 inches and
5½ inches in diameter.
Note: If you plan to store foods in a can for more than a
day, transfer your food into a plastic or glass container
to prevent "off-flavor" from developing in the can.
IMPORTANT: FoodSaver
Universal Lids should not
®
be used with thin glass, crystal, plastic or lightweight
aluminum containers. The force exerted by vacuum
packaging is extremely powerful and could implode a
thin glass or non-rigid container.
FoodSaver
Bottle Stopper
®
Use FoodSaver® Bottle Stoppers to vacuum package
wine, non-carbonated liquids and oils. This will extend
the life of the liquid and preserve the flavor. Avoid using
the Bottle Stopper on plastic bottles.
Note: Do not vacuum package carbonated or sparkling
beverages as gas removal will cause them to go flat.
