Abstract

Food provided in microwaves with multiple compartments often heat unevenly resulting in hot and cold spots within each quantity of food. Moreover, many microwave ovens often include a glass tray that holds food off the floor of the microwave; however, the glass tray may absorb some heat or energy from the food, thereby potentially lengthening heating times and further causing uneven heating of foods. The present invention addresses these problems, amongst others, by providing, a substantially square multi-temperature and multi-texture frozen food microwave heating tray with Y shaped, flex stabilizing dividers. The tray includes a first integral compartment defined by at least one sidewall and an upwardly convex bottom, and two additional integral compartments defined by at least one sidewall and a bottom. This seeks to minimise energy transfer to the plate. The present invention also comprises a microwave energy access modulating structure for at least one of the compartments, to provide a more even and consistent distribution of energy.
