Chips are flushed with nitrogen gas to cut off the contact of oxygen with oily chips to prevent areial oxidation and preventing food from getting rancid

-----------------------------
nitrogen gas is not reactive, it is used in bags of chips to prevent them from becoming rancid in nature.
rancidity can be described as being oxidation of fats and oil resulting in bad taste and odour.

furthermore, I would like to add that
☆ antioxidants such as BHA and BHT are effective for saving food.
☆ we can refrigerate food.
☆ salt is a natural preservative.

hope it helps :^)
