My only worry are EDCs. They are heavily present in plastic, and sous-vide bags are no exception.
EDIT: EDC refers to Endochrine Disrupting Chemicals, proven to be a big problem for reproduction.
Well, goddammit, I just had a huge reply typed out, and the website deleted it when the text window lost focus. Okay, super short version: /u/akrot raises a good point, and we would all do well to apply harm reduction and awareness of EDCs in our lives. They are ubiquitous and insidious. In my case, sous vide cooking is one of the very few explicit uses I concede to single-use plastic in my life. It is also one of the few points in my kitchen that food touches plastics.
We must all pick our own battles, and everyday EDCs demand some awareness-raising.
