Hello and welcome to you in the kitchen with Matt, I am
your host, Matt Taylor.
Today, I have another product review for you and I'm going to
be talking about the Pomodoro vacuum pump containers.
And these containers are pretty cool and they take the place of
like Tupperware with just a normal top on them or like a
bowl with plastic wrap.
And the idea of these is it's a vacuum pump.
And so it sucks all the oxygen out of the container,
which helps limit the growth of bacteria and fungus from fungi
on the food that's inside the container.
And if you've seen those, you know, vacuum sealed bags
with the long vacuum sealer, this is the same idea.
However, these are in container form and pretty cool.
Some things about them is they are stackable.
And they are BPA free, the plastic is BPA free,
they can go in the freezer and
they look pretty cool as well and there are very functional
if we look at this one right here, first of all,
thick or five of these little different sizes comes
in the box.
And each one has this little sheet inside that tells you how
to how to use it.
It also tells the size of the container.
This one is a 67 ounce container and it has this
little instruction kit on here on how to use it.
They are very simple to use.
And so once you get them and you know how to use it, you can
just toss these pieces of paper.
But really, it comes with this little vacuum pump and
it's rechargeable, has a rechargeable lithium battery
inside that's rechargeable by this USB cable.
And this is just a little vacuum and it's it
works really well.
Some things I want to point out when I use it for I use it
for fruit like.
These apples, these sliced apples, you can
see they sliced apples have been here in here for a couple
of days and there's very, very small hint of brown,
hardly any brown on the sliced apples.
If you were to slice these apples and just leave them out
after 15, 20 minutes, they're going to get brown.
Or if you put them in just normal Tupperware or just
something with plastic covering on it, they're still going
to get brown.
And it's been two and a half, almost three days, and there's
still hardly any brown on the apples.
And so the main idea is to keep your food fresh longer and they
post up to five times as long for some foods and they're
meant for putting meat in there like meat and chicken.
You could also put vegetables and fruits and things
of that nature.
I also do marshmallows in here and I'm going to demonstrate
that a little bit later.
Also, I use this for brown sugar.
It keeps the brown sugar nice and fresh as well,
which sometimes your brown sugar.
You can get hard if if there's air, if it's
not sealed correctly.
Like if you just keep it in a bag, like with a twisted tire
or something, eventually it'll get hard.
And so this can take the place of that as well.
I also use it for cheese.
I put my cheese in there and so I want to show something about
the marshmallows, kind of how this works.
And it's really neat looking.
So what you do is there's this little knob on there,
the button, if you will, with a little handle and you just
pull that
and that's all the air out.
And if you saw the marshmallows,
they kind of shrunk.
And that's kind of the normal size for the marshmallows and
has these little handles.
And you just open those up
and the marshmallows are super nice and soft and fresh.
And to use it all you do, you take your content,
your lid, and it has this ring around it, a silicone ring,
which creates a really tight, airtight seal.
And you just put it on with these little clips.
And the clips are just meant to hold the top in place.
While you suck the air out, you take a little vacuum pump.
And just put it on there and then just push that button and
you hold down, it doesn't take too much pressure.
You just hold it down
and a light is going to blink green and red on top.
And then you can let go of it and just let it do its thing
and it's going to turn off automatically once the air is
all sucked out.
And if you notice, wash the marshmallows,
watch the marshmallows in there,
they're going to expand.
It's actually really cool.
And once it turns off, you can just.
Take that off and there you go
there, nice and sealed inside, vacuum sealed to help them.
Last quite a bit longer, and you can notice that these
clips aren't on there anymore because they're not meant to
keep the top on the vacuum seal keeps the top on.
So how.
Tonight, is the vacuum sealed, well, air and water tight.
I have this one small one with water in it and I previously
sealed it and you can notice that the little clips are
off right there.
But if I turn it upside down and shake this thing.
The clips are off, you can see the clips off such a tight
seal there, there's no liquid coming out of the top.
Pretty awesome.
So that is the power of the vacuum seal.
And so these things are really neat.
It's a cool kitchen gadget to help keep your
food fresh longer.
And if you have trouble with your food going bad in the
current containers that you have, I recommend
picking these up.
Just like I said, they stack really nicely in your fridge or
in your freezer and they do a really good job removing the
air out of the container and having a tight seal around it
to help make the help make the food last that much longer.
Again, up to five times as long.
And again, what would you use these for?
You can use it for your brown sugar,
your marshmallows, your fruits and vegetables,
especially leftovers after you cut them up and you don't want
them to go bad quickly.
Also your meats and your chicken and things of that
nature and seal them up, keep them in the fridge or put
them in the freezer.
The up to you.
Awesome gadget.
