From Amazon:
The FoodSaver V3240 (V3200 Series) Vacuum Sealing System keeps food fresh up to five times longer than ordinary storage methods and prevents freezer burn. This system removes air and moisture from specially-designed, multi-layer bags while sealing in flavor so that your food tastes as if it was bought yesterday even after being in the freezer for months. Use it to freeze pre-made dinners that you can reheat during the week, to keep left over salad or pizza slices in the fridge for later, to deep-freeze cuts of meat, and much more.I found this chart on the Amazon site particularly interesting:
Avoid waste by storing your favorite foods properly. Vacuum-sealed fish can last up to two years and vegetables can last two to three years when stored in the freezer. Take a look at the chart below for other items to keep fresh longer with your FoodSaver.
