Empty Mountain House Type Bags?

[Wyatt]

Does anyone know where you can order the empty bags like the ones that Mountain House, Backpacker's Pantry, AlpineAire, etc. use to package their meals? They are a good bit more durable than ziploc freezer bags and stand up on their own. Thanks!

Another option is to save old bags you use for on your wkend overnighters or section hikes, wash and reuse. :)

I've not done it, but I've seen folks reusing bags from meals.

I've done it and works well. As long as you use care not to 'spork it' you can use them a few times over.

Thanks all for the ideas! Good stuff!

One clean MH bag makes a nice cozy/bag holder for a lot of FB dinners if you are careful. It also makes a nice back up if it turns out there is a hole in your FB :)
