Abstract: The reusable food transportation device, or food transportation system, includes a single hub that connects to a collection of containers. The hub is circular and the food containers are angular wedges projecting horizontally outward from the hub. Each food container includes a vessel and a lid. During transportation the hub, formed from an upper section and a lower section, compresses each lid against its respective vessel to prevent spillage of the food contained within. When the device arrives at its destination the upper section and the lower section of the hub are separated from each other. This removes the compressive force holding the lid and the vessel in place. The user may then remove the containers as they see fit.
