Anyone used the Weston ziplock vac sealer bags?
« Reply #-1 on: May 29, 2013, 04:05:23 PM »
I have been looking at these bags for a while http://www.westonsupply.com/Weston-Zipper-Seal-Vacuum-Bags-p/zipper-vacuum-bags.htm and just never pulled the trigger.  Today I ordered 2 packs of them to give them a try.  They say they will work in the foodsaver so I am hopeful that is correct.  Every time I get in a bag of jerky or snack stix I have to hunt around for a container or ziplock bag to put them in once I open the vac sealed bag.  Normally I will leave a corner unzipped so I not trap moisture in the bag while it is in the fridge.  Just thought I would see if you guys have ever tried them and what you thought about them.


Enough ain't enough and too much is just about right.

I have the Weston bags but not the ziplock ones. The regular bags work fine in my Foodsaver so I would assume the ziplock version will work also. I looks like the bag seals and vacuums from the opposite end of the zipper so I can't see why they would not work.

I, too, have the regular Weston bags and very pleased with them. 

When you use these would give us a product review please?

Jim I use them all the time. They work great. I sent some Canadian Bacon home with Art in one of the bags, plus a few other goodies
Bacon is the Crack Cocaine of the Food World.
