ABSTRACT:
A serving container for a food product such as a hamburger. The bottom of the container is in the form of a flat plate having an upstanding rim near its periphery and is formed of paperboard. The top or crown of the container is an inverted cup formed of paperboard. The lower edge of the crown carries integral tabs which resiliently and releasably fasten into slots in an upstanding V rim of the plate. The plate serves as a base upon which the food product may be built. The crown functions to retain heat and emit moisture and may serve the additional function of a receptacle for another food product, such as french fries or salad, when the serving container is used in a so-called fast food restaurant. In food outlets serving hamburgers of different thicknesses, different height crowns alone need be stocked thus reducing container inventory. The number of locking tabs carried by the lower rim of the crown is significantly greater than the number of slots in the V rim, thereby assuring engagement of at least most of the slots, to thereby join the crown to the plate.
