Comments on How to Prevent Freezer Burn on Your Frozen Food

I agree, good advice thanks

Oh, how I hate the taste and smell of freezer burn!!! Thanks for the ideas.

I've been doing it this way for years and it really works. Saves space (more compact packages) and money

This will save us sooo much money.

Excellent advice. Thanks for sharing.

Instead of squeezing the air out of the bag, I put my mouth up to the the small opening at the end of the sealing line and SUCK the air out. Works almost as good as a vacuum sealer machine!

Good advice. Having to throw away food is frustrating.

Thank you. The details reminded me somewhat of a Phil Hartman skit on SNL, but I benefited. -Larry Fike

When closing the freezer bag, leave one small opening in the corner, cover with your mouth and suck the air out. This will "vaccuum pack" it for you. You can also use a straw.

This does work really nice. Thanks.

What about food that's prepackaged? Popsicles, individually wrapped items of that sort?

I would like you to know that contrary to some of the Postings... I believe this is an "Excellent" addition to the other very well written articles you have taken the time to write for us! I suppose that might be considered "Long Winded" too. lol, but hey.. you're in good company with me. Just ask my friends, that's why I enjoy them so much!! Have a Spectacular Day! Write On! Bailey

What a long winded way to say: wrap or seal EVERYTHING you put in the fridge or freezer. Besides spoling food, you also risk food contamination, poisoning, etc, etc, etc.

great advice!

for not hot food you can insert a straw at end of bag and draw air out ..than finish sealing it..

Great advice.... Thanks Angel
