Use the bags the o2 absobers come in or the mason jars. A lot of plastic breathes. Having been involved with lab test in a crime lab, we found that a lot of plasic bag such as the zip lock bags breath and will let oxygen in over time. Do not trust them for long term storage. If you want to test o2 absorbers it is easy. Take a new absober and tape it loosely to the bottom of a mason jar. Do not put a lid on the jar. Place the mason jar upside down in a pan of water. Leave it for 24 hours. As the oxygen is absorbed it will suck the water up into the vacuum. Mark the mason jar and you will have a gauge for checking older absorbers.
