ABSTRACT:
A preservation device for preserving a partially eaten portion of a fruit or vegetable having a skin and at least one exposed surface includes a pair of arms. Each arm extends in a longitudinal direction and has a distal portion and a proximal portion. The arms are pivotally connected to each other for movement of the distal portion between an open position for engaging the at least one exposed surface of the partially eaten fruit or vegetable portion and a closed position where the at least one exposed surface of the partially eaten fruit or vegetable portion is engaged with the preservation device. A flat plate is carried by the arm in the distal portion of the arm. The flat plate extends generally perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the arm and is adapted to engage the exposed surface of the fruit or vegetable for preservation purposes.
