ABSTRACT:
A bag for carrying and exposing a food item, usually of the hamburger-type sold at fast-food or convenience stores. The bag includes front, back and gusseted side panels which are interconnected and form a V-shaped closed end and an open end. A pair of lines of weakness or perforations are provided in the bag, one along the junction of each side panel and the front panel and extending between the open and closed ends. A pair of slits, one member associated with each line of perforation and extending from the bag open end to the respective perforation line. A second set of slits can be provided at open end of each of the non-perforated side panel/back panel junctions can be provided. The bag having a width or the distance between the lines of perforations being substantially equal to the width of the front panel. Thus the bag can be opened by tearing along the perforations so as to expose the bag interior and an item therein for removal, application of condiments, and/or reuse of the bag. Moreover, the bag is fabricated of a multi-purpose laminate having layers of tissue, adhesive, polycoat tissue and polyethylene. This laminate functions to enhance moisture and heat retention within the package and imprinting capability.
