ABSTRACT:
A snack tray providing easy one-hand carry by the provision of a special thumb-hole, by which the outer end of the user's thumb provides a support-stability of a fulcrum located generally centrally not only of the upward forces from the user's fingers and thumb-base but also generally centrally of the tray. Other features include a central indention for providing an automatic forcing of the user to place his thumb's outer end in a location so as to not slip into a portion of the snack items being carried, and also achieve its central fulcrum effect; and the forward and rearward walls of the thumb hole are slanted, providing a comfortable and guiding surface for the user's insertion of his thumb's outer end portion. Other special provisions add to the advantages.
