ABSTRACT:
An ovenable food package including a non-circular base having legs extending therefrom. The base is constructed and arranged such that an exterior gap is created between a portion of the base and the support surface of a food heating apparatus into which the package is placed. The base is also constructed and arranged such that at least one interior gap is created between the food product contained in the package and the base when the food product rests on the base. This construction and arrangement insures uniform and efficient heating of the food product and also insures that moisture in the form of steam can escape from the food product so that the food product comes out of the oven crispy and not soggy. An ovenable food package is also disclosed that has a sidewall extending from the base that terminates in a stepped flange and a removable lid for covering the base. The lid is sized and shaped such that a removable portion of the lid can be positioned to rest on the stepped flange. In this way, a space is created between the lid and the food product.
