How long does vacuumed food last?

Companies that use vacuum packaging perform shelf life studies on their products and it will vary from product to product or even manufacturer to manufacturer. It also depends upon the quality of the product when it is packaged. Home vacuum packaged food may not last as long as commercially packaged product.
Also remember that vacuum packaging does not take the place of proper storage.

Both etouffee and gumbo start with a roux but they are different How?
Etouffee is an entree; gumbo is a soup
An Etouffee is typically thicker than a gumbo, they can both have the exact same ingredients where the roux used for the gumbo is typically a darker roux and thus it is necessary to use an oil for the higher smoking point. Roux for the Etouffee is typically blond and usually is made with butter, making the dish richer and more of an entree than a stew or soup.
