Can these be trusted not to leak and let in badness during a one week hike? I like the potential to remove almost all air from the bag and decrease pack volume a bit more.
Oh, and can you do FBC with them?

In my experience, they slowly leak. Even taping over the suction hole and the top. The zipper isn't totally airtight. It will hold for a while, long enough to freeze, and if you are lucky, a few weeks, but jostling it around and packing in a food bag will most likely cause a leak. So will any food residue on it. I packed some fresh oatmeal raisin cookies that way I mailed in resupply before. You won't decrease volume because everything will be hard as rock and not nest together.
Well shizzle, I bought two boxes. Maybe I can find a use for them around the house.
