Dry & Dry Orange Indicating Silica Gel Packets Desiccants - Food Safe Silica Packs, Silica Gel, Desiccant Packs for Food Storage - Orange - 1000 Packets (5 Gram)

I use these for a variety of purposes (in air tight food containers for pasta, rice, bread, crackers etc as well as in my gun safe, document safes, etc) to keep humidity from ruining contents. They work well, and I like that they can be easily recharged when the color change indicates it is time. The fabric containing the desiccant silica gel is sturdy to prevent leakage of any silica beads. I like that these are food safe (I also use them for non-food items) and use only food safe desiccants so that I don’t need to keep track of which desiccant packs are safe for foods. These are fairly expensive but given they can be recharged and that they are food safe, they are a good value. 5 stars IMHO.

Desiccant for keeping nagged items dry. Reusable! Fast shipping. Will buy more.

This is a great product, though I was a little confused about the recharging instructions. I thought this could be recharged in the microwave, but the packaging said that this version of their product, the Aiwa packets, should _not_ be microwaved. I sent a message to Customer Service, and they responded quickly. For the 10 gram packets, they can indeed be microwaved on the defrost cycle, but the smaller packets (5g and smaller) should not be microwaved. Doing so can cause the packet material to melt. As it turns out, they use the same product bag for all the multiple sizes, so the instructions on the bag led to the confusion. So... 10g packets of the Aiwa packets are microwave safe. Smaller Aiwa packets are not.

Great product for storing dried goods. Not crazy about their ability to be “reused” though. I followed all of the instructions on how to “re-dry” the packs, but the indicator beads remained the same color as when they first showed they had been exposed to moisture. Not 100% certain the indicator beads are MEANT TO return to their original bright Orange color. However the product did a great job for its original, intended purpose of keeping dehydrated products dry. So 5 stars for Use-ability 1 star for Re-use-ability.

I just received an open my bag of the absorption packs and all of them already have a bunch of orange. Not sure if that’s normal, but just thought I would post this.

Great product. Very useful and easy to dry out. Removes the humidity very well in side my safe. Came real fast too

These are awesome! No longer need to buy dry ice!! Highly recommend!

Good product to keep perishable things fresh

Perfect for my dehydrated fruit and vegetables

Cumplen su función. Sólo cuando compré el paquete, en la página web dice que para reutilizar las bolsas se puede usar el horno de microondas pero en el empaque dice que no.

Been using for a while. It seems to work. I don’t have any issues with my stuff getting damp and moldy.

After looking through many different oxygen absorbers, I decided to go with these mainly for four reasons... 1) the price was decent, lots in a bag for the price. 2) they change color when it is time to change them. They work! The color really does change. and the bags are clear enough to see them without looking very hard. 3) they come in an airtight zipper storage bag to keep them fresh till use and out of the air exposure. 4) they are FDA approved. Every fall I store a lot of food ahead for the winter months to save on winter trips to the grocery store and in case of being snowed in a storm. These will work great in my rice container, flour and pasta containers, cereal containers, tea and cereal bars containers....kitty kibble container....they are fantastic....as for drying and reusing, I haven't tried that yet and doubt I will...for the price I will probably toss them and buy a new fresh bag of them in the spring...don't want to risk old ones falling apart or ripping and leaking into food so I will just replace with new to avoid taking any chances. Very decent product. I am satisfied.

Work well in my dehydrated and vacuum sealed food!
