Why Vacuum Storage
The biggest reason to use vacuum packing as opposed to other techniques is speed and convenience. Vacuum packing food can be done far more quickly than many other types of storage as well as taking up the least amount of space when finished. It is important to understand, however, that vacuum packing cannot replace canning for room temperature storage for perishable items such as meat and fruit and vegetables due to the lack of a heating process. Vacuum packing is best for bulk, dry food storage.
