Are Plastic bags used for vacuum sealing foods safe when heated?

I might not be right about this so make sure this is correct first but, I think that it will be ok and safe to use those plastic bags for micowaving in the microwave. The only exception i would have is to make sure that if you do that you first put an big wide opening into the plastic bag first. Otherwise if you do not do this, then the plastic bag will explored and all of your food inside that plastic bag will be all over the inside of your microwave and will need to be clean up as a result. I hope this helps you.
