Food waste is something we all deal with and actively try to avoid. While so many folks freeze, package and store their meats, seafood, veggies and leftovers as best as they can, they still manage to go bad after just a few weeks. This is due to little air pockets in the packaging that cause bacteria to grow.

This is completely unavoidable, and the only way to guarantee that all of the air is sucked out and to ensure your food stays fresh for longer is to invest in a food vacuum sealer. Amazon shoppers say this best-selling option from customer-favorite brand Mueller is the best one, and it's on sale for just $57!

Over 10,000 shoppers can’t stop raving about how this device saved them so much money and prevented lots of food waste.

It helps you more proactively prep and organize your freezer with fresh food that’s ready to defrost and serve whenever you like — without the risk of freezer burn or ice crystals. Also, because it sucks all the air out of the package, your sealed food takes up less space in your fridge or freezer.

With the Mueller Automatic Vacuum Sealer Machine's dual sealing modes, you'll be able to seal dry, solid food items and moist foods that have been poached, simmered or steamed with no issues.

Using this particular vacuum sealer also couldn’t be easier. Use one of the included medium vacuum bags or the extra-long vacuum bag roll and align your meal in the bag. From there, insert the opening of the bag into the vacuum chamber, close the lid and click it into place.

Press the “seal” button, and watch the indicator light turn on. Once the seal button switches off, lift the cover and press the “release” button to open the vacuum sealer and take out your newly sealed bag. That’s it!

This cuts the time you spend preparing meals and also saves you so much money, especially if you buy your favorite foods in bulk.

If you were wondering how much longer your food will last with this vacuum sealer when stored in the refrigerator, here are some specifics:

Meats: Freshness is extended from three days up to nine days.

Fruits & Vegetables: Freshness is extended from one to seven days up to 20 days.

Fish: Freshness is extended from three to five days.

These foods also last months longer when stored in the freezer after they’ve been vacuum-sealed.

Thousands of Amazon shoppers are impressed with the Mueller Automatic Vacuum Sealer Machine's performance and durability. One five-star reviewer even said it's the "best money saver I have ever purchased!"

“This product, so far, has been great!” the shopper wrote. “I am addicted to this little thing. It also helps save space in the freezer. It really is worth every dime.”

Ask anyone who lives with me, and they’ll tell you that I’m extremely low maintenance when it comes to breakfast. Usually eggs or oatmeal with fruit will do.

When people think of McDonald's , they tend to think of a traditional, all-American brand that's been a reliable fast food pick for as long as they can remember. McDonald's certainly is those things, and its revenue proves not only that people think of it as a trusted brand, but that it's held that reputation for many years. It makes nearly twice as much as the second highest-earning chain on the list, an honor held by Starbucks SBUX (and it's worth noting that its not a legacy brand like Restaurant Brands International's Burger King in that spot).

"Good Morning America" tapped three-time New York Times bestselling cookbook author Danielle Walker for a healthy, hearty pork chop dinner recipe offering both flavor and time saving. "Pork chops can overcook and turn out dry if you’re not careful, but for this dish, I marinate the chops in a super-aromatic, sweet-and-salty sauce and then quickly cook them under the broiler so the top gets crispy and browned but the inside stays tender," Walker wrote alongside the recipe.
