It's not air in chip bags, it's nitrogen. And yes shrinkflation is a thing. It sucks.

What's the difference? Nitrogen is air.

According to Fred Caporaso, professor of food science at Chapman University, companies choose nitrogen to fill their snack bags because the gas is inert, meaning it doesn't react with anything else, whereas the oxygen that it's in the air will react with the oil in the chips, thus causing them to go rancid quickly.Mar 3, 2023

That makes sense. Nitrogen is also cooling to some degree, helping the food remain crisp.

It also makes up most of the air around us, which is what people refer to as air in snack bags.

Yes our atmosphere is majority nitrogen... But most ppl if asked what do we breath would say oxygen. And not that I've really asked many ppl, but I feel like most ppl equate air with oxygen. Especially bc in medical situations you're giving ppl oxygen when they need help breathing.

So I was just sharing the what exactly the air in chip bags is.

Getting a good fit can be difficult enough for men, but women have an additional aspect to their shape that makes button downs not fit. This goes doubly for women who are curvier than average, but it's true for most women. And the same for shirt dresses!

Most women’s stores sell button downs tailored for women.

You mean designed for a woman's figure, or tailored for each individual woman? Because I've never seen the latter, and the women's shirts are made for a woman, technically, but the fit has to be very precise for it to not bunch up or gape, and only a very small percentage of women can actually just try on a shirt at the store and have it fit.

I never ever spray or treat my husband’s Charles tyrwhitt shirts. They are specifically non iron, ironing can actually make them not last as long.
