ziplock bags

Press-to-close containers

Ziplock bags are resealable plastic bags with interlocking ridges along the opening that press together to form an airtight seal.

A trademark that has become generic, the term applies to any brand of such bags.

They're kitchen staples for storing food, but serve countless other purposes: I keep my toiletries in ziplock bags when I travel.
