  • Produce container with insert
    Patent number: 8474610
    Abstract: An improved container for holding produce is provided. The container comprises a tub-like tray, an insert that forms a snap fit within the tray near the tray bottom wall, and an absorbent pad that fits in the space between the insert and the tray bottom wall. When in use, exuded liquid can drain into the reservoir below the insert where it is absorbed by the pad. The insert helps segregate the exuded liquid from the produce and is designed to remain in place when the container is titled.
