Very dependent on what it is, same as vacuum seal bags.

Anything raw? One use.

Wet? Not likely but in a pinch as long as it’s been washed and was only used recently.

Dry? Yeah, sure. Though I’d be more inclined to grab a new one.

Not exactly the best for the environment, which is why we use glass over plastic as often as possible.

Would you say you're intentionally phasing out the use of plastic in your house? If so how has it been?

[–] KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

Slowly, but it’s difficult. Most things these days come wrapped in plastic after all.

We use glass and paper where possible, but nothing beats a vacuum sealer for properly storing food in the freezer so… plastic it is.

That said, we recycle what we can, which is something at least.
