  • Patent number: 5630544
    Abstract: This invention relates to a collapsible container for holding food products having an attached collapsible pocket for holding condiments. The container has a flat, rectangular bottom and tapered front and rear walls connected thereto. Tapered side walls are joined to the bottom and connected between the front and rear walls. The width of the tapered front and rear walls and the tapered side walls increases as they extend upwardly from the bottom to form an opening at the top of the container. The area of the opening is larger than the area of the rectangular bottom. A collapsible pocket having a rectangular bottom is secured to the outside of the front wall of the collapsible container. The pocket has a rectangular front wall spaced apart from the container by a pair of rectangular side wails and a flat, rectangular pocket bottom. The container and pocket collapse by folding flat for compact storage.
