ABSTRACT:
A container for a flat food product is formed from a one-piece blank to provide a multisided container having a front panel, first and second opposing side panels, third and fourth opposing side panels, first and second perforated portions interconnecting said first and third opposing side panels and said second and fourth opposing side panels, respectively, a rear panel, and a top. The six-sided design provides less air space in the container, thus contributing to the maintenance of the temperature of the food product contained therein. Lock tabs located on minor flaps of the front panel secure the first and second opposing side panels into an upright position by interlocking under portions of the side panels. The perforated portions provide continuity between the side panels, and automatically provide hot air ventilation outlets when the container is assembled. The third and fourth opposing side panels are angle cut at their rear edges so as to achieve friction-locking of the side panels into place when the container is closed. The top rests on the side panels so as to prevent sagging and undesired contact with the food product contained within. Finally, tab-like portions provided on opposing sides of the top are inserted into the aforementioned slits to secure the top in a closed position.
