    Food packaging serves several important purposes: it protects food from physical and chemical spoilage, enhances shelf stability, facilitates handling, and simplifies storage. The main function of packaging is to ensure complete protection of contents. Package characteristics include moisture proofness, resistance to grease and microorganisms, and protection from light, insects, and odor. Packaging materials are classified as flexible and soft materials like cellophane and polyethylene; rigid containers like glass jars and cans; or non-rigid materials like paper and cloth. The type of packaging used depends on factors like the food's size, shape, consistency, and whether it is solid or liquid.
