Can these be used to cold pack veg.?

Sorry, not these, use the Tattler lids for canning. These have no seal on them.

No, these bags just fold shut. Since there is no air-tight seal or actual closure, I would not recommend using these bags to freeze food.

Yes. I've frozen soups and chilis in them. They're basically the same as used for soup at the deli. Just leave some room at the top for expansion when freezing.

I think it would be okay. They are pretty adaptable. Id just put it in the fridge every once in a while if it's seeing warmer days.

My understanding is the bags are not for freezer use, so the answer is no. To do that you'd need to purchase their bigger food saver sealing machine.

I suppose it could be done......not sure about cooking them directly from a frozen state.

I haven't but I'm sure you can. I just wouldn't leave them frozen for an extended period. I love these for many different uses.

I have not ever tried anything like that. The blades are not really very sharp so I would think it might break the vegetables if they are really frozen but I would not think it cut through them.

Yes. Take caution in shuffling around in the freezer as other frozen items will pop this bag. These work great but I would imagine a vacuum seal would be better for a long term freeze (more than a month).

I don't see why you can't store lettuce in them. I have stored green beans,broccoli and other veggies with no problem. Mostly though to transport vegetables from the store home

In my opinion, I don't think they'd be able to. I use them in my kids' lunch boxes each day, and when they get home, the ice isn't even cold anymore.

Not sure. You would have to cook them longer. They may char on the outside before heating through.

They work great for ice cream, so I don't see why not! They're not really sealed, though, so freezer burn might be a problem.

I'm not convinced any reusable cold pack would suffice since the active body warms them sorta fast. But this one's higher density and mass might go the diatance. It is heavy though.

I have never tried with cold water. Although, I would think that after some time soaking in water they would be soft enough. Right out of the pack they are crunchy, you could definitely use warm water but the soaking time may be more lengthy. I do not follow the directions, I use enough for one serving and pour hot water over them, cover and let stand until they are soft (about 6 minutes). Hope this helps! Let me know how it works if you decide to try it.

I'm sure you could, but the stuff they are made of wouldn't hold the cold for very long. These are really fun, not sure what the freezer could add to the experience.
