I do around 150 lbs of smoked bacon every month for my little sideline business. I've found that I can put the Foodsaver canisters in the chamber and vacuum seal them without using any tube or other accessory. The lid goes on loosely, the sealer goes through it's cycle, and when done, the canister has been vacuum sealed, even better than using a Foodsaver and the attachable tube
I did some compressed watermelon and papaya last night. Seedless watermelon sprinkled with a little sugar since the watermelon was almost tasteless.
Here's a pic of the compressed watermelon
