A food and condiment carton including at least one collapsible food compartment configured for holding food, wherein the at least one collapsible food compartment includes a first base; and at least one collapsible condiment compartment configured for holding condiment, wherein the at least one collapsible condiment compartment is configured to extend from the first base to form a second base such that the first and second base together serve as a stable collapsible food and condiment carton.

Liquid consumption devices, systems, and methods of using the same are described herein. One method of using a liquid consumption device can comprise determining a hydration plan for a user based on parameters of the user using a computing system, receiving data from a liquid consumption device at the computing system over a period of time, aggregating the data received over the period of time to track liquid consumption of the user, and identifying the user is outside a threshold hydration level based on the aggregated data and the determined hydration plan.

A ruler for mixing the ingredients of a selected beverage is slidably received in a vertical slot formed on the inside wall of a pitcher. The beverage ingredients for mixing are listed on each side of the ruler. The list of ingredients for each beverage is color coded to distinguish one beverage from another. The amount and order for mixing the ingredients in the pitcher are identified by parallel spaced measuring lines extending from the bottom to the top of the ruler. The lowermost measuring line on the ruler identifies the first ingredient added to the pitcher. The remaining ingredients are sequentially added to the pitcher to the level of the measuring line identifying each ingredient. The ingredients for mixing are added to the pitcher without requiring the volume of each ingredient to be separately measured and added. With the mixing ruler being releasably attached to the pitcher a set of mixing rulers for a collection of beverage recipes is available for use in mixing beverages in the pitcher.

The device herein overcomes the problem of holding a messy food item by providing a food holder having corrugations of resilient material, where the corrugations are arranged to provide, in use, a compressive force to hold the food in place. The food holder has two opposing sides joined by a gusset, the gusset having corrugations of resilient material, where the corrugations are arranged to provide, in use, a compressive force to hold the food in place. The opposing sides have an open edge and at least one closed edge where the gusset joins the sides together along at least one closed edge, and where the gusset is arranged to allow all of the edges of the opposing sides to move towards and away from each other. The container is of one-piece construction and the corrugations are semi-circular, and the proportions of adjacent corrugations are different.

A condiment dispensing utensil assembly for on-demand dispensing of a condiment includes a utensil, which comprises a shank that can be grasped in a hand of a user. A panel is engaged to the shank and defines a chamber. A condiment is positioned in the chamber and is selectively dispensable therefrom.
