Food Storage and Safety Information
The 7529.0010 will revolutionize the way you buy and store food. Because vacuum packaging works to eliminate freezer burn
and slow food spoilage, you are now able to take advantage of buying food in bulk without the threat of food waste.
Vacuum packaging with the 7529.0010 removes up to 90% of the air from the package. This will help keep food fresher up to
5 times longer than under normal circumstances. Dry foods like pasta, cereals and flour will stay fresh from start to finish.
Plus vacuum packaging prevents weevils and other insects from infesting dry goods. Package only the freshest foods possible.
However, please keep in mind that not all foods benefit from vacuum packaging. Never vacuum package garlic or fungi like
mushrooms. A dangerous chemical reaction takes place when air is removed, causing these foods to be dangerous if ingested.
Vegetables should be blanched before packaging to kill any enzymes that may cause deterioration of out-gassing when
vacuumed.
