Why do potato chips manufacturers fill the packet of chips with nitrogen gas? Why |
|
Answer» To prevent rancidity in potato chips To prevent rancidity Nitrogen is an inert gas, which stops the contents of the packet from reacting/decomposing. If they filled the packet with air or oxygen then the food would break down over time and will get decomposed. And, potato chips will be smelled and will become unedible. To prevent rancidity Nitrogen is added in the packet to avoid the chips to get spoiled faster as nitrogen is a inert gas which doesn\'t react with the substances quickly. |
