I wash mine and want to re-use them. I use them to store homemade baby food.

How many times can I wash and re use them and have them still remain freezer proof?

THANKS!

I wash and reuse mine over and over too. I suppose as long as there's no damage to the bag after washing (holes) then it'll work just as well as the first time. I've had no problems with mine.

As long as they don't contain meat, I re-use mine until they wear out. But once I've put any sort of meat in them then I toss them.

I wouldn't. Plastic is going to react with the moisture pretty quickly. That is why it isn't recommended we use water bottles more than a week or so.

Maybe react isn't the word; I am not good with chemistry. But the plastic does give off something that isn't good for your health after repeated uses.

Well, you have a point!
I'm going to have to research a bit!
Thanks ... I think!
