Theoretically yes. I bought some specially made mylar bags designed to be vacuum sealed. But I haven’t had a chance to use them since I also got oxygen absorbers and regular ziplock style mylar bags in the same order and have been using them up first.
The ones I got are from mylarbagsdirect.com and are the 7 mil vacfoil bags which come with an interesting warning:
*(Note) We have found that because of the thickness of these bags, some of the cheaper vacuum sealer units may have trouble getting a good seal on them because the heat bars do not get hot enough. It may be necessary to seal twice back to back to get a good seal with some units. We have a Cabela’s Pro series machine and the bags work great with it. We also tried a cheap FoodSaver and that is where we found that we had to cycle it twice to get a good seal.
Hope this is helpful.
