ABSTRACT:
A carton package comprising a plurality of side-by-side tray compartments suitable to contain consumable contents therein and a lid part enclosing the tray compartments. Each tray compartment includes a bottom wall panel, side wall panels, and leak-tight integral corner connections between adjacent side wall panels. The lid part includes a planar rectangular lid panel defining package top and a pair of lid flap panels integral with the lid panel and folded perpendicular thereto to define substantially the entirety of a pair of opposed package sides. The lid panel extends over the tray compartments in generally closing relation such that a side wall panel of each of two of the tray compartments is disposed along a pair of opposed package ends constituting end defining side wall panels, a number of side wall panels equal to the number of tray compartments extends along each of the pair of opposed package sides constituting side defining side wall panels, and the remaining side wall panels extend between the package sides and constituting interior side wall panels. The end defining side wall panels have integral flanges extending outwardly from the outer edges thereof sealingly adhered to the lid panel. The side defining side wall panels are adhered to the lid flap panels to rigidify the tray compartment connection and provide a substantially smooth exterior surface along the package sides. The lid part has cuts therein to facilitate the manual venting and accessing of each tray compartment space.
