ABSTRACT:
A display tray for use in a package of mushrooms comprises an upper mushroom crown-displaying portion and a lower mushroom stem-containing portion. The crown-displaying portion includes an outer peripheral edge section and a mushroom crown-supporting surface around each of a plurality of stem-receiving holes. A flange structure extends around the edge section and defines a matrix around the mushroom crown-supporting surface. The plurality of holes defines a mushroom weight-correlated hole design whereby, when all of the holes each receives a single mushroom, a preselected total net weight of the mushrooms is substantially consistently maintained from one mushroom tray to the next. The lower stem-containing portion includes a closed, liquid impervious wall structure defining a mushroom stem-containing chamber for receiving each mushroom stem that extends through each of the holes of the weight-correlated design.
