Abstract: A food package that includes a concealed eating utensil is provided. The package comprises a can body containing a quantity of food with a cover removably secured to the can to enclose one end of the can and to provide a storage compartment between the end of the can and the cover. A folded eating utensil is contained in the storage compartment. The utensil has two portions: a functional end portion (spoon, fork or knife) and a handle portion with a joint between them for enabling the utensil to be folded for storage in the compartment. The term "joint" is used broadly herein to include any form of connection, e.g., a hinge or complete separation of the handle from the functional end portion of the utensil with a socket connection therebetween. Utensil retaining members can be provided inside the cover for engaging portions of the utensil to hold it in place.
