[pct-l] FoodSaver Freeze n Serve bags

[Ed Jarrett]

I put my food into quart sized Ziplock freezer bags. and cozy them in the Jetboil Sol pot. When it comes time to eat I just open the bag and it folds nicely over the pot. It is easy to hold, easy to eat from, and there is no cleanup.

My issue with Ziplocks are that they don't stand up like a gusseted bag. I'm looking for zipper, gusseted bags with dimensions similar to commercial freeze dried meals. The only gusseted bags I can find are too narrow at the top to easily eat from. The new Food Saver Steamer zipper, gusseted bags are the right dimensions but appear to have steam vents which might be an issue if you are using them to rehydrate a meal. So would like to know if anyone has tried them.

Freezer ziplocks not the cheap ones.  I think they are lighter, and have more of multipurpose (trash bags).  If the FoodSaver Bags are the heat sealed bag, that may work to mail ahead boxes?  You shouldn’t need to mail anything really as you can always pack a few days all the way to Tehachapi.  I think I remember the SoCal longest haul is now (Ziggy and the Bear being closed) Idyllwild to Big Bear.  I was by the store just last month by Casa De Luna and that store is great!  Hikertown now owns a grocery nearby.  Then, 3-4 days to Tehachapi.

FWIW, I never cook in my Ti Pot.  Just use a Talenti ice cream plastic jar for stirring, coffee.  The oatmeal packs are great for pouring hot water into with a bit of freeze dried berrys.  Enjoy. . . .
