Question from Gigi

I have had my eye on a FoodSaver Vaccum Sealer for quite a while, but I have questions as to what the safety of the bags are. Do you have any information about bag toxicity? The Foodsaver website says that the FoodSaver bags are BPA free.

Debra’s Answer

On the manufacturer’s website it says:

Polyethylene is the safest plastic I know of for food contact.

To use a FoodSaver is like putting food in a plastic sandwich bag.
