Yes, I am the one interested in a Food Saver. I have one sitting in
my living room under wraps. A gift from my daughter. I can't wait to
open it. It seems everything I do these days could be done with a
Food Saver. Thanks for thinking of me :-)

Just how long do you plan on saving food... years? I don't buy more
meat than will be used within three months, usually more like within
three weeks. I don't remember the markets in the US ever running out
and there are sales on meat every day.

Sales?

On top round?

Oh I bet there are!

I mean if you get adventurous in the low end meat world there is always
the fatty but useful 7 bone chuck...

I bought one recently the cheaper 39.99 model and am enjoying it. I figure
that's all I need.

Unless I'm sadly mistaken, vacuum sealers aren't necessarily about how
long to store something, although that's certainly a factor. To me it's
more about saving money in the long run.

Say you find a great sale on meat but it's one of those *family packs*.
Not everyone would use up (e.g.) eight steaks or 12 chicken thighs
before it goes bad. You want to freeze some of it. Smaller portions.
The vacuum sealer sucks all the air out and (ta da!) seals the item in
the bag. Food packaged this way prevents freezer burn and the formation
of ice crystals. In that sense, yes, you probably could save it for
years

It has to be a pretty good sale to save money because the bags and rolls
can be pretty pricey. There are some bargains on bags out there. Then
there is the cost of the machine. I use mine for smoked salmon when I
make it. I use it every year around this time when the local produce
stand closes for the winder and my wife stocks up on their aged cheddar.
She will buy a whole block of it and I cut it up and vacuum pack it. It
will keep for months like that.

That is the sort of outstanding buy that makes them worthwhile.

Even before I bought meat at Costco, I'd buy pork chops, etc, in
large packs. I'd take great pains to wrap them, pressing out all the
air, wrapping them twice, storing them in a plastic bag ... to
no avail, before long they'd lose their fresh look.

With the Foodsaver, if I don't want pork chops again for 3 weeks
or more, they come out of the freezer looking fresh, and that's
why I love having one. I buy Food Magic Seal bags on ebay.

You are not mistaken at all! That is exactly how I use mine

I would NEVER buy a food saver and fuss with it to save a few
chicken legs... the darn bags cost more than a couple chicken legs.
Cook em and eat them that week... there's always the universal
preservation method, SOUP!

Sheldon, some of us do a lot of sous vide and a foodsaver comes in very handy for that.
