I'm curious to know if they work well. It looks like they would be good
for a lot of WW recipes.

I've used these from Lakeland:

They're excellent. I've also used these, which are great for freezing &
reheating: http://www.lakeland.co.uk/product.aspx/!10914_10915

Just found these in our store here in South Texas (we always seem to get
things later than the rest of the country down here)... But can hardly
wait to try them...the fish sounds especially good. Surprised they are
a "one time only use" but that's okay.

Using the microwave may break down the plastic. You could always try to
wash them out and reuse if you think it would work.

Good idea Audrey.. I did indeed try to reuse the first bag I tried. I
steamed the bag full of vegs first, put them in a serving bowl. Bag
still looked good so went ahead and put the fish in. Used the recipe
that comes on the box.(adding lime juice, red pepper, ginger and
cilantro) Worked great and believe it or not the bag is still intact.
Looks like it could be used some more. I think I'm going to like these
for sure.

I just bought another couple of packs, so I shall also try re-using them...

Hm... I bought the bags to SAVE on washing up - or at least, to save
the space taken up in the dishwasher by awkward cooking items! I don't
do hand cranked washing up...
