Explanation:
Rancidification is the process of complete or incomplete oxidation or hydrolysis of fats and oils when exposed to air, light, or moisture or by bacterial action, resulting in unpleasant taste and odor. ... When these processes occur in food, undesirable odors and flavors can result.
prevention: method for preventing rancidity of food is the proper storage, keeping away from the action of oxygen. Rancidification can be decreased by storing fats and oils in a cool, dark place with little exposure to oxygen or free radicals, since heat and light accelerate the rate of reaction of fats with oxygen.
