The present invention is a method for improving the visual appearance of a food product (12) and a film (22) utilized i in the method. The film includes an effective amount of a nitrogen-containing compound contained within or applied to one side of the film and adapted to contact a food item held within a food packaging container (10). Upon contacting the food item within the container, the nitrogen-containing compound forms nitrous oxide gas within the container, because of the contact of the compound i with and dissolution into the juices of the food product. Thus, the physical contact of the packaging film with the food product causes a preferred reddish bloom to appear on the viewing surface (100) of the food item without effecting the appearance, performance or color of the interior of the food product. |
