I cannot confirm your question however, we have used these types of bags for over 15 years for food storage. They are waterproof with a ziplock type closer. With an oxy-asorb pellet inside the bag, you can keep food fresh for long periods, for example up to 30 years forwheat.

Hello Phil, These bags are great, they seal very well and hold up to 25-30 lbs of rice or beans, they also come with the oxygen absorbers. as far as being genuine mylar bags I am sure that they are. They work well.

Beware of answers insisting these are legit. They are probably from sellers. They insist they can be registered when they cannot. Amazon doesn't care if the stuff is real anymore. A shame.

I use it very well and haven't noticed the bag has any problem. And I don't think it is a fake one, should be original.

I would say - no. They are wrinkly and thin. Not a nice real flour sack cloth. Not sure where to look for the real thing.

Yes , they are true cellophane bags. They are crinkley and not soft . They are very clear . They are not plastic. They are also strong and true to size . I thought they were a little pricey but I ended up very pleased .

Not really. They are made out of the same material that cheap shopping bags are made of. They are machine washable though.

If you are asking about mylar bags I cannot say, They have sealed every plastic type of bag I have needed to.

I believe they are real cellophane; however, I'm not sure what a polypropylene bag would feel like, so cannot state one way or the other with certainty.

I don't know. They are nicely manufactured they fit perfectly and on the plastic bags they are delivered in there is a MB label. I do not complain

Sure, I am happy to. There is a popular misconception that there is one Mylar film and the thicker, the better. Actually, there are many kinds of Mylar films which consist of layers of different materials that serve different purposes. Mylar itself is a transparent member of the polyester family that is remarkably strong. The Mylar in this film has a bursting strength of 69 pounds per square inch so it can withstand a lot of abuse. In order to make the film a protective barrier to oxygen, a foil layer is added. (oxygen cannot go through glass or metal) This foil layer can be disturbed by folding, moving or filling the bag and you can sometimes see a scratch or a separation during regular use but these are not holes in the film and do not significantly effect the performance of the bag. Mylar bags from Pack Fresh are made here in Southern California and have never been shipped until you buy them. That is how we can afford to compete with the other discount "mylar" that comes from China. There are some enlightening Washington Post articles that should make it clear why American-made products such as those from Pack Fresh are superior. Have a great day and please let us know if you have further questions.

I know some people said these are fake, but I doubt it. The packaging and the product looked legitimate. I'm really happy with mine.
