FOOD STORAGE AND SAFETY INFORMATION
Attention:
Store perishable foods in the freezer or refrigerator after vacuum packaging.
For best result in extending the life of foods, it is important to vacuum package foods that are fresh.
Once food has begun to deteriorate, vacuum packaging may only slow the deterioration process.
Vacuum sealing cannot prevent the growth of mold. Other disease causing microorganisms can
still grow in low oxygen environments and may require further measures to be eliminated.
