Explain why, food products containing fats and oils (like photo chips) are packaged in nitrogen.
Food products containing fats and oils are packaged in nitrogen because nitrogen acts as an antioxidant and prevents food from oxidation and make it rancid.
(An anti-oxidant is a substance that prevents oxidation. Anti-oxidants are added to fat and oil-containing foods so that they do not get oxidized easily and hence do not turn rancid.)
