ABSTRACT:
A stand for supporting taco shells in an upright position facilitates filling the shells for preparation, as well as supporting the shells for consumption, and minimizes loss of the shell contents through spilling by maintaining the shells upright in a mouth open orientation. The stand employed for filling is bowl-shaped with two opposing U-shaped slots disposed in opposing wall portions of the bowl. The stand used for assisting consumption of the filled shell is also bowl-shaped, but only includes one U-shaped slot disposed in a wall portion of the bowl. Both devices include horizontally extending feet for contact with the bowl-supporting surface to stabilize the bowl on the surface. Use of the stand for filling the shell contemplates placing an empty folded shell diametrically across the bowl so that the bottom of the shell contacts the bight of each U-shaped slot. Use of the stand for assisting consumption of the filled shell requires positioning one end of the filled shell in the slot and the bowl, with the bottom of the shell contacting the bight of the U-shaped slot.
