The glass is full: half of it is air.

33 6 ReplyYeah, horse shit. I've had brands that use way less air in the bag and they weren't destroyed, and I remember a time when companies in general didn't use all the air in the bags and we weren't getting bags of dust back then.

10 4 ReplyOld tasting no. It's not the nitrogen that keeps them fresh, it's the lack of Oxygen. It will of course keep them from crumbling to pieces though and that's enough of a reason.

Yes but it's far more than necessary to protect the chips. Bag sizes are inflated for the psychology not the practicality
14 1 ReplyFalse. Bag sizes are relative to the amount of nitrogen needed to keep the chips from crushing.

I recently saw a local brand of chips with the tagline "less air, more chips", and hey, there it is, capitalism at work. Competition happening.
Then I remembered that PepsiCo owns Frito-Lay and they are a huge conglomerate, so it doesn't matter what it says on the bag. And hey, there it is, capitalism also.
