As you know (since I've been bragging....er.....rejoicing so much!) I have 55 pails with grains. Opened one up and it also is lined with a sealed mylar bag. Is there a use for these bags? I'll use them for trash unless someone has a brilliant idea. I've never used mylar bags so this is my first experience with them.
I don't have a vacuum sealer but inspecting the bag leaves me wondering if they could be used to make smaller bags for use with a vacuum sealer?
However, I opened the first pail while a doe was on the milking stand, eating, so I got the lid off and saw the mylar bag. Since the doe was almost done, I grabbed the scissors and tossed them on top of the sealed bag so I could open it when the next doe was being milked..... and the point punctured the bag, making it hiss as the vacuum left the bag. Does this mean the bags are fragile or that the sharp scissors hit it just right?
Anyone know?
I don't have a vacuum sealer since researching the price of bags. They are crazy expensive, even in bulk. Since I rotate my stuff, and it has not been an issue, as I rarely store food in the freezer more that a few months. However......with two large pigs this year.....some meat may be kept longer.
Whatcha think?
