A container for pizza comprises a base, four edges, and a lid provided on one of said edges. The container is characterized in that it comprises a first support element and a second support element projecting respectively from a first edge and a second edge. The support elements have ends comprising connection means designed to allow temporary joining together of the two ends.

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.

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 container for holding a product such as snack food, wherein the container is transformable from a cylindrical shape to a bowl shape adapted to hold and provide easy access to the product. The container has a pleated sidewall comprising a plurality of longitudinally extending rigid sidewall panels and pleats, with each sidewall panel connected to adjacent pleats by frangible lines extending in the longitudinal direction.

Bio-degradable food handling devices and systems and methods for making the devices. The embodiments herein relate to a bio-degradable food handling device (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60) for use as at least one of a drinking straw, a stirrer, a chopstick, a balloon stick and a candy stick. Further, embodiments herein relate to systems (100) and methods (200, 300) of making the bio-degradable food handling devices (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60). The bio-degradable food handling device (10) is hydrophobic and antifungal thereby increasing shelf life of bio-degradable food handling devices (10). The bio-degradable food handling device (10) is durable, hygienic, non-toxic and recyclable. The bio-degradable food handling device (10) has smooth and soft outer portion that provides comfort to user. The bio-degradable food handling device (10) can be used to draw pieces of fruit, vegetables, solid processed food pieces and other pieces of foods therethrough.

An adjuster for adjusting the volume of a receptacle which includes a floor dimensioned to be complementary received by the receptacle, and, a displacement mechanism for displacing the floor relative the receptacle, wherein the volume of the receptacle is adjusted when actuating the displacement mechanism thereby displacing the floor relative the receptacle.

A container comprising an outer shell formed from a plurality of elongate wall members. Lip portions extend outwardly from along longitudinal sides of each of the wall members such that inner surfaces of the lip portions face each other. Inner surfaces of the lip portions include a press seal mechanism such that pressing inwardly on outer surfaces of adjacent lip portions engages the press seal mechanism to form a plurality of seams securing adjacent wall members together.

A teether is disclosed that is capable of retaining and presenting solid, cold, and/or damp food to a teething child. The teether has a top piece and a bottom piece. An opening in the top piece has a plurality of lobes and a like number of retaining teeth. The retaining teeth are configured to capture properly sized food, so that a teething child is able to gum or gnaw on the food, but not remove the food from the teether. If the child places too much force on the food, the food falls through the opening into a vessel, where is remains until removed by an adult.

A food handling device includes a holder having an interior chamber extending along a longitudinal axis, and an extension housing detachably mounted on the holder and having an interior compartment for receiving and for holding the foodstuff. A pusher is mounted in the chamber for axial movement. An actuator axially moves the pusher through the chamber and through the compartment into contact with the foodstuff, and incrementally feeds a continuously variable quantity of the foodstuff along the longitudinal axis through the opening directly into a user's mouth to enable the foodstuff to be eaten bite-by-bite in a sanitary manner without using eating accessories, such as plates and/or utensils, and without the user's hands directly touching and contaminating the foodstuff, thereby preventing the spread of disease.

This design for a peelable sandwich bag facilitates the consumption of a sandwich without having to directly touch the sandwich. The bag consists of two stacked rectangular layers that are sealed together at the bottom edge and only partly sealed on the side edges starting from the bottom. This creates three free edges that peel away from the sandwich during consumption. A plurality of magnetic strips mounted near the free edges enables the enclosure of the bag around the sandwich prior to consumption. The combination of temperature resistant plastic and sufficiently weighty magnets enables the sandwich bag to be dishwasher safe and reusable.
