Abstract: A handheld sandwich package is provided. The handheld sandwich package includes a packaging structure having a cavity occupied by an associated sandwich. The associated sandwich is contained within the cavity when the packaging structure is intact. A first section of the packaging structure defines a first portion of the cavity. The first section is appropriately sized to be graspable by an individual. A second section of the packaging structure defines a second portion of the cavity and is removable from the first section to reveal the associated sandwich. An opening is defined by the first section when the second section is removed therefrom. The opening is connected to the first portion of the cavity. The associated sandwich is seated in the first portion of the cavity and extends through the opening and when the second section is removed the associated sandwich is capable of being held in the first portion of the cavity by exertion of a force on at least one compressible wall of the first section.
