Why is there so much air in potato chip bags?

To prevent breakage and to cushion the chips inside during storage, transportation,etc... You are paying for the exact weight of the chips (amount located on the bottom right usually) so you are not getting ripped, especially since air doesn't weigh that much last time i checked.

So in the end, it is a necessary evil that will continue to frustrate many snack-happy people who will never seem to be satisfied with the "wasted space" inside their bags

Edit: I left the previous answer because it is partially correct. HOWEVER, the most important reason is the "air" that is in a bag of potato chips is actually pure nitrogen gas. The nitrogen prevents the chips from rotting. Without it, cushioning wouldn't even be necessary because the chips would be spoiled before you bought them anyway.

Type your answer here... I have heard that the chemical in potato peelings can often cure them when rubbed on before socks at night. May be an old wives tale but worth a go.
