Abstract: A fluid applicator system includes a fluid containing jar, an applicator sponge attached to a lid, and a perforated plate for maintaining the sponge in a compressed state against the closed lid to regulate the amount of fluid which it can absorb. The sponge is compressed by inserting it into the jar so that it abuts the perforated plate while the lid simultaneously seals the jar. The extent of compression of the sponge, and thereby the amount of fluid which it can absorb, is regulated by adjusting the level of the perforated plate within the jar prior to exposing the fluid to the sponge.

Abstract: A food product and a method of preparing the same in which a rectangularly shaped piece of dough of a predetermined consistency is provided with a paste-like filling on one side thereof. A portion of the rectangularly shaped dough is folded on its short edges over the filling to bring the longer edges thereof into abutment, whereupon a suitable crimping means seals the open edges for maintaining the paste-like filling sandwiched within the dough. The short edges of the folded dough are brought together in a circular end to end relationship to form a toroidal-shaped food product. The food product is heated at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined period of time and is subsequently frozen for storage and delivery to the final consumer. The consumer heats the food product at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined period of time prior to consumption thereof.
