Gas flushing is a process in which products are stored in an artificially produced atmosphere, normally within a plastic container such as a hermetically sealed tray or pouch. The process is also referred to as MAP or Modified Atmosphere Packaging, and is used to enhance colourretention of, for example, fresh meat or cured meats such as bacon and cooked ham, especially in sliced form.
