What are Oxygen Absorbers?
Oxygen can promote the growth of bacteria and fungi that can cause food to spoil. Consuming food with bacteria can be harmful. Oxygen Absorbers can prevent the growth of pathogens and extend the shelf life of food. Oxygen Absorbers are non-toxic and inexpensive compared to the cost associated with throwing out contaminated food.
