When food containing oil and fat is kept in an open air, it undergo oxidation and become rancid; due to which their smell and taste changes this process is called rancidity.
Usually, to avoid rancidity in food containing oil and fat, substances are added which prevent oxidation. Such substance are known as antioxidant substance. Food kept in air tight containers helps to slow down its oxidation and rancidity is retarded.

Rancidity is a very general term and in its most general meaning, it refers to the spoilage of a food in such a way that it becomes undesirable (and usually unsafe) for consumption. When people say that a food has "gone bad," what they're usually talking about is rancidity.
