  • Patent number: 4660716
    Abstract: A packaging arrangement for preparing and serving food products is disclosed which facilitates packaging, preparation, and serving of two or more food products in the arrangement. The construction includes a unitary, one-piece partitioned tray which defines a plurality of cavities for respectively receiving the different food products. The construction further includes a combination covering and serving member configured for releasable securement to the partitioned tray, and which is configured to resemble conventional dinnerware. The covering and serving member initially functions as a cover for the partitioned tray. However, upon inversion of the entire arrangement the food products transfer from the cavities of the tray onto the covering and serving member for serving and consumption of the food products, with the tray and serving member cooperating to prevent substantial commingling of the adjacent food products.
