Abstract: A food-carrying container is constructed to resemble a conventional tote case so that a person can carry his or her lunch to an office without attracting undue attention or concern by other people. The food-carrying case includes a tray and hinged lid that have mating insulative foam liners. The tray case may be internally partitioned to form at least four insulated compartments. A thermal bottle, containing cold thermally active material, is mounted within the lid to maintain the associated food items at a desired temperature until the time at which the food items are to be consumed.
