I guess it would depend on how cheap you can buy the boil proof ones Vs that boilbag thing and the cheap bags.

For some meals i just vac pack them like ryan recommend to reduce size and keep meals fresh but have found some vac bags/rolls cant handle the heat of boiling water so
just found the easiest way is to get a decent quality silicone zip lock and empty the vac packed meals or meals in zip locks and just use the silicone bag to heat/assemble/eat out of
