[Sca-cooks] medieval boil-in bag meals

My very old seal a meal doesn't have the suck feature but I get all the air 
out easily with anything saucy and I've often made a big pot of something 
braised, had a nice dinner, cut up the left over meat and sealed it with the 
sauce for future events.  I've never used it for anything 'dry' that is to 
be frozen.  As a single camper and a court junkie, I LOVE the option to put 
something in the boiling water to thaw/heat, then cover and turn off the 
heat,  and be able to come back to camp to a hot meal.
