The food we eat may contain fats and oils which when kept in contact with air for a long time, gets oxidised in presence of oxygen to become rancid. This would result in foul smell and bad taste. But, if kept in air tight containers, the chance of coming in contact with oxygen containing air would be reduced. This would thus, help slow down the process of oxidation.
