the chips packets are flushed with nitrogen gas to avoid rancidity . as oxidation of the chips would result out to give bad taste and smell .

Potato chip bags are not full of air, but of nitrogen gas. This is done to prevent the chipsfrom oxidizing, which is part of what makes them go stale. Oxygen is very reactive, and likes to combine with other molecules whenever it can, causing chemical changes to take place
