A flexible, expandable, insulated food delivery bag system for maintaining heated foodstuffs at temperature having plural arrays of openings for permitting heated moist air to escape from the interior of the bag system to prevent the contained foodstuffs from becoming soggy. The bag system closure is effected by adhesion of paired hook and loop strips located on the elongated closure flap and on the bag exterior or an adhesive strip located on the closure flap and overlaid onto the exterior of the bag system with a tear strip located in the flap for reopening the bag upon delivery.

A pizza delivery container leveling and position retaining structure having outwardly and upwardly angled walls from a centrally located platform form a bounded location for retaining a pizza delivery container therein. A rear downwardly extending support and upwardly angled foot extend along the rear of the platform resting on the rear of a vehicle seat at the junction with the seat back forming a capture point for engaging the seat belt to secure the structure in place. The platform also rests against the front portion of the seat crating a stable, level place for transporting a pizza delivery container.

A carry handle (33) for carrying a pizza box or cake box or other boxed food product is made of inexpensive disposable paper or cardboard and comprises a pair of strap portions which generally are parallel to each other and in a side-by-side relationship and are joined to each other by a fold line (17). The strap portions can be twisted about the fold line (17) into a cross like configuration. A pizza box can then be placed on the cross like configuration. The strap portions are longer than the width of the pizza box and can therefore be lifted up and over the pizza box and connected together to form a reliable carry handle.

In one aspect, a food delivery temperature charging system, temperature charging cradle systems and food transportation system are described herein. In some embodiments, the food delivery temperature charging system contains a temperature charging cradle system including a base unit including a first temperature adjustment unit generating hot or cold air, a backing affixed to the base unit, and a channel duct affixed to the backing, wherein the first temperature adjustment unit is connected to the channel duct so that the channel duct permits free flow of the first temperature medium to a charging station. The food delivery temperature charging system further includes a charging station containing a horizontal shelf for holding a food storage system including a shelf temperature medium portal, which is connected to a channel duct so that the first temperature medium is conveyed from the fully enclosed channel duct to the temperature medium portal.

In one aspect, food transport systems are described herein. In some embodiments, such a system comprises an interior compartment defined by a floor, one or more side walls, and optionally a lid. The lid has open and closed configurations. The lid, or a bottom surface thereof, is in facing opposition to the floor when the lid is in the closed configuration. The side walls comprise fold lines or seams substantially parallel to the floor. Further, the side walls have reduced thickness or rigidity or self-supporting ability at the fold lines. The interior compartment has an extended configuration and a folded configuration. When the interior compartment is in the extended configuration, the side walls are substantially orthogonal to the floor. When the interior compartment is in the folded configuration, the side walls are folded or collapsed onto themselves along the fold lines, in a direction orthogonal to the floor.

A cabinet for storage of a heated food item has a base, top and opposing sides, the base, top and opposing sides defining an interior space which is accessible through opposing access apertures, An air movement means and air heating means draw air from the interior space of the cabinet, heat said air and produce an air curtain across a first one of the access apertures of the cabinet. A door is operable to reversibly close a second one of the access apertures to prevent ambient air from entering the interior space and heated air from egressing through said second access aperture. The air movement means circulate air within the interior space from the first one of the access apertures to one or more of: the opposing sides, and the top and the base of the cabinet.

The invention relates to a device which essentially comprises a bottom piece, a cover, a base, and a cloche. The base and the cloche, which are able to form a closed receiving chamber inserted between the bottom piece and the cover, adopt two different configurations: a first configuration in which the base is resting on the bottom piece such that the chamber can receive a solid food product, for example a pizza; and a second configuration in which the cloche is resting on the bottom piece such that the chamber can receive a different, non-solid, food product.
