When it comes to dependable food storage, nothing beats high-quality mylar bags. Gorilla Boyz’s 3.5 mylar bags have earned a reputation for durability, freshness preservation, and convenience. But what sets our 3.5-liter bags apart?
What Is a 3.5 Mylar Bag—and Who Needs One?
A 3.5 mylar bag is a medium-sized, flexible storage pouch made of multi-layered mylar film. It holds approximately 3.5 liters (close to 0.9 gallons)—the perfect size for:
-
Backpackers and campers packing dry goods like rice or oats
-
Families organizing bulk-purchased pulses or grains
-
Emergency-prep enthusiasts prepping food kits for 2–4 people
It’s the Goldilocks bag: not too big, not too small—just right.
Why Gorilla Boyz?
1. Premium-Grade Film
Our bags use five-layered, food-grade mylar—resistant to punctures, light, and oxygen. That matters when you want your rice to stay crisp or your freeze-dried meal unspoiled.
2. Heavy-Duty Zip Seal
The dependable zipper lock means no resealing mess. Seal it once, and the food stays safe until you need it.
3. Gas-Flush Compatibility
Perfect for those who add oxygen absorbers or nitrogen flush. A sealed bag stays sealed, even during pressure changes.
4. Clear Date Labeling
We stamp every bag with a writable label, so you know when you packed it, and when you should use it by.
Real-World Example: “Weekend Backpacked, Still Tasty”
Last July, Sarita from Colorado wrote to us:
“I used Gorilla Boyz 3.5 mylar bags to pack oatmeal, coffee grounds, and nuts for a 3‑day trek. Even after hiking every day, my food tasted as fresh on Day 3 as on Day 1. No spills, no stale taste—just great gear.”
This kind of feedback is exactly why we designed a bag that performers in real conditions, not just on the shelf.
When to Choose 3.5 Mylar Bags
| Scenario | Why 3.5 Mylar Bags Work |
|---|---|
| Camping or hiking | Fits trail mix, granola, noodle meals |
| Emergency food kits | Stores enough for 2 people, 10–14 days |
| Dry goods storage at home | Ideal pre-measured rice, beans, sugar packs |
| Bulk‑to‑portion repackaging | 3.5 L equals about 7–8 cups—easy to decant |
Case Study – Family Prep, Minimal Space
The Patel family in suburban Indiana had limited pantry space but bought dry goods in bulk. They portioned rice, split peas, and lentils into our 3.5 mylar bags, stacked them neatly on pantry shelves, and labeled each with contents and packing date. After six months, everything still tasted fresh—no spoilage, no waste, and better organization.
Tips for Getting the Most from Your 3.5 Mylar Bags
-
Add an oxygen absorber (500–1,000 cc per bag) when packing dry goods to extend shelf life.
-
Use a heat sealer or household iron to seal bags firmly after filling.
-
Store in a cool, dark place—under 25°C (77 °F) is ideal.
-
Rotate contents every 12 months for best freshness habits.
