FoodSaver Vacuum Sealers are kitchen appliances used to remove air from specially designed plastic bags or containers, creating a near-airtight seal. This process, known as vacuum sealing, extends the shelf life of food by preventing the growth of bacteria and mold, which require oxygen to thrive.
Vacuum sealing has become increasingly popular in recent years as a way to preserve food and reduce waste. It is particularly beneficial for foods that are prone to spoilage, such as meats, cheeses, and produce. Vacuum sealing can also be used to store dry goods, such as pasta and rice, to keep them fresh and free from pests.
