ABSTRACT:
A package for sliced food product comprising a bottom wall, a top wall, opposite sidewalls and opposite end walls, wherein the package includes a flap which comprises portions of the top wall and/or an adjoining sidewall of the package, and which is movable between a closed position and an open position to selectively facilitate access to the package interior. The package is preferably made of a thin, flexible plastic material. The flap is removably retained in closed position by a peelable seal extending along one or more edges of the flap, or at least along portions thereof. The package is configured so that when the flap is in open position, the sliced food product is accessible from the side, which facilitates engagement of slice edges and subsequent separation thereof, as well as removal of the slices without undue distortion. This makes the package particularly useful in conjunction with packaging of certain sliced cheeses, although the package may also be useful with other products as well.
