Abstract: A carrier for beverage containers and food includes spaced upper and lower panels with aligned openings for receiving the beverage containers. A vertical panel extends from the central portion of the upper panel, and a food carrier tray having a slot through which the fingers of the carrier may be passed is fit over the vertical panel. Flaps which provide additional support to the beverage rack portion, limit movement of the beverage containers and provide additional support and stability to the carrier when the carrier is placed on a level surface depend downward from the upper and lower panels at the locations of the openings. Also disclosed is a blank for use in forming the carrier.
