We've acquired a sturdy vacuum packing gadget for free at the #CommunityFridge. No instructions but been experimenting with it this afternoon. We are often given 3kg or 5kg bags of pasta, rice, lentils etc which are far too big for most people. I've just decanted those into smaller packs which will be easier to offload. Most amused that the fusilli pasta was so sharp it popped the bags when vac packing!
