Good ideas, Lurker!

I know I get overwhelmed thinking of things to put in my BOB, so having a nice list like this helps.

What is the gentle cycle? Pulse until it appears tight?

I tried that with chocolate and some rye chips. When I first got the vacuum sealer about 6 months ago, I was hooked - I sealed about anything I could find, LOL!
