Okay kiddo, you know how we need oxygen to breathe and stay alive? Well, sometimes there's too much oxygen in certain things like water or packaged food, and that can make them go bad. That's where an "oxygen scavenger" comes in.
An oxygen scavenger is like a superhero that takes excess oxygen out of things so they stay fresh and safe to use. It works by reacting with the oxygen and making it disappear.
In simpler terms, think of oxygen scavenger as a cleaner that gets rid of too much oxygen to keep things fresh and healthy. Just like how you clean up your toys to keep them nice and neat!
