Most people know about vacuum sealing foods such as vegetables, meat and fish, but a lot of people don’t realise how handy they can be for camping trips. I like to vacuum seal pre-made meals nice and flat so that they can fit into small or tight spaces in my hard cooler or freezer. Yes, you could use a food storage container but they are bulky and if not filled to the top a lot of space is wasted.

There is nothing better than warming up a meal by the camp fire or sitting under the stars enjoying a home cooked meal that is effortless to prepare because essentially your just warming it up in a pot. Meals with rice and pasta are my favourite. Meals like a Spaghetti, carbonara and curries are winners! Not only is this perfect for camping but you can stack a heap more meals in your freezer at home for those days when you just don’t have time to cook up a big nutritious meal. A tip when loading up your premade meal into the vacuum seal bag is to roll up the edge so that you don’t get any food on it, this will ensure you can seal the bag properly. The Pac Food Vacuum Sealer in this video is one of the many sealers we stock in store. This is the premium model we sell! This is for the hard-core camper or someone who wants the best quality vac sealer to last the distance!
