If you read my post in "What I did today", you will know that we put up a bushel of snap beans today. The limiting factor seems to be the time for the beans to freeze prior to vacuum sealing. We noticed that they froze quicker in our refrigerator freezer than in our old chest freezer. I wonder if the chest freezer is getting ready to die?
Anyway, I have noticed dry ice chests in grocery stores lately. Has anyone tried using dry ice in a styrofoam ice chest to freeze produce?
I joked with my wife that we could get some liquid nitrogen and flash freeze them.

Oh, I know. I have access to Liquid nitrogen at work (at least, used to). We would have to do something with it, and play with our leftover LN.
