As of the time of this review, the actual item being sold is mis-represented in the Amazon page. Here is cut-pasted info below:Title 20 - 2000cc OxyFree Oxygen Absorbers for Dried Dehydrated Food and Emergency Long Term StorageProduct Features 20 count 18" x 28" (5 Gallon) 5.0 mil Thick Ziplock Mylar Bag - Perfect for a 5 or 6 Gallon Bucket 20 count 2000cc OxyFree Oxygen Absorbers with NEW OxyEye indicators - seal & store with confidence Can seal with a standard clothes iron or hair straightener - Can be resealed on any part of the bag Individual packets are food grade, non-toxic, and designed for long-term storage Ideal for long-term food storage of dehydrated grains and dried or freeze-dried foodsPicture: Shows a stack of Mylar Bags with a package of Oxygen Absorbers on top.So 2 of the 3 items describing the product include the Mylar bags. I wish I had known of the Customer Asked Questions feature (as I just realize this function exists, must've been recently added). I use that feature all the time for Ebay purchases.The product came quickly shipped via Amazon Free Shipping. It was well sealed in Food Saver type clear package, did not include the OxyEye indicator pill as the picture indicated and the feature stated. Price was decent for absorbers only, excellent price if it had included mylar bags (bags would've added about several more dollars to the price).

These should be individually wrapped, because once you open the bag, you have to use them all at once or the remainder goes bad. It's better to buy in smaller quantities.

We bought these for our earthquake/tsunami preparedness kit, but we will have no idea whether they actually work or not until we open the sealed packages we hope we never have to access. The first pack of them I opened might have been compromised because I didn't know how to handle them. Read about it before you open!!!!

Most of the time when received, they are no good, so its a waste of money. using a vacuum sealing process now to replace this type of storage system.

Out of so many sources for oxygen absorbers, this one was the best value. They are well packaged, easy to use, and potent! A must have for food preservation!

I used all but 1 and that one got very hot standing in the open air - so it must be working

None of ALL 20 packets working!!

Work very well with my storage buckets and mylars.
