Answer:

Nowadays, fast food(oily and fat) and dehydrated food is preserved in air tight sachets made from flex, a kind of plastic material. These sachets are filled with nitrogen gas. The principle behind is that the food is not exposed to moisture and germs. This prevents oxidation.

Oil and fat containing food items flushed with nitrogen because nitrogen acts as an antioxidant and it prevents them from being oxidised.
