So I got a bunch (and I do mean a bunch) of cool 8oz silver pouches a while ago, like this:
but I am almost out. I was looking for some new ones, maybe white like this: (30 cents ea w/valve)
But what about these (23.5 cents ea w/valve)
They look to be made of the exact same material, and I have had zero issues with the valves in many, many bags so far.
Pro pouch:
likely pack more in boxes due to flexible shape
pretty tough
ziplock top doesn't need heat seal, tape, or twist tie. easy to keep closed and works well with the valve
available in matte white (I know, but I like to write all over them with colored markers)
much less common, they are kinda cool
work great in a freezer (not that I have ever tried that out
)
Pro bag:
cheaper, even with 2 cent ea re-useable tape closures, or 3.5 cent ea metal ties
pack nicer in square boxes
much more common, don't look like dried fruit bags.
I may have one or two left over to share, have been using 8oz, considering some 2oz and/or 16oz. Opinions?
