Description
- This invention generally relates to food container suitable for use when eating wrapped food items in a fast food environment or a non-dining environment, such as at a desk.
- Eating a wrapped food item, such as a burrito, may be difficult and messy in a non-dining or informal dining environment. In such environments, one does not have a plate or utensils to facilitate the processing of eating. When eating at a desk, or in a car, or on an airplane, it would be desirable if the wrapped food item were placed in a stable container that would allow one to eat the wrapped food item without the contents of the food item spilling or the use of utensils or other apparatus.
- The present invention discloses an apparatus and method for consuming a wrapped food item in a non-dining or informal dining environment. The method comprises placing the wrapped food item into an upright food holder, removing one or more portions of the upright food holder during a process of consuming the wrapped food item, wherein the wrapped food item comprises a substantially cylindrical shape. In one embodiment, the upright food holder comprises a tapered cup designed such that portions of the tapered cup are removed during a process of consuming the wrapped food item. Methods for removing portions of the upright food holder may comprise the use of string, tape, or perforations. The dimensions of the upright food holder and the degree of taper of the upright food holder is selected so that the upright food holder is stable when the wrapped food item is placed in the upright food holder
- When the upright food holder comprises a tapered cup, wherein the tapered cup comprises one or more sections that divide the upright food holder into one or more rings, the method for consuming a wrapped food item is as follows:
-
- unwrapping a protective cover from a first portion from the wrapped food item, wherein the first portion of the wrapped food item extends from top of the upright food holder to top of the wrapped food item;
- consuming the first portion of the wrapped food item;
- pulling a peel-away tab located between a first section and a second section of the upright food holder;
- removing the first section of the upright food holder and exposing a second portion of the wrapped food item, wherein the second portion of the wrapped food item extends from the top of the second section of the upright food holder to the top of remaining portion of the wrapped food item;
- repeating the above process for each of the rings of the upright food holder.
- In an alternative embodiment, the upright food holder comprises tapered cup, wherein the tapered cup comprises a spiraling circular strip which is peeled-away in order to expose additional portions of wrapped food item. In another alternative embodiment, the upright food holder comprises a tapered cup, wherein the tapered cup comprises multiple perpendicular strips that extend from top of the upright food holder to the bottom of the upright food holder, wherein a flexible band or a flexible ring is moved down the upright food holder, allowing the multiple perpendicular strips to be peeled-away from the top of the upright food holder down to the flexible band or the flexible strips (similar to a banana) in order to expose additional portions of wrapped food item
- The wrapped food items may be burritos, wraps, shawarmas, gyros, falafels, and special shaped sandwiches. The wrapped food item may be wrapped with a protective cover, such as tin foil.
- The elements in the figures are not necessarily to scale, emphasis instead being placed upon illustrating the principles of the present invention. In the figures, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the different views.

- An “upright food holder” is a cup or glass shaped apparatus that is able to support a wrapped food item when placed in the upright food holder. One example of a wrapped food item is a burrito. While consuming a wrapped food item, the height of the upright food holder may be reduced by removing portions of the sides of the upright food holder to facilitate the consumption process.
- A “wrapped food item” is an item of food that is wrapped and has a substantially cylindrical shape. Examples of wrapped food items include, but are not limited to, burritos, wraps, shawarmas, gyros, falafels. Special shaped sandwiches may also be wrapped food items. A wrapped food item may be wrapped in a protective cover such as tin foil.
- An upright food holder is an apparatus for facilitating consumption of a wrapped food item. The upright food holder may comprise a cup that may or may not be tapered. In one embodiment, the upright food holder is a tapered cup designed such that portions of the tapered cup are removed during a process of consuming the wrapped food item. The upright food holder is a cup that is slightly tapered, with the top of the cup having a larger size than the bottom of the cup. The dimensions of the tapered cup vary depending upon the dimensions of the wrapped food item. The upright food holder may be constructed with a variety of materials such as paper or plastic. The upright food holder may be fabricated with a variety of techniques to facilitate the removal of portion of the upright food holder, such as tape, string, or perforated material. One skilled in the art will recognize that other fabrication techniques and other materials may be utilized in the upright food holder.
- The dimensions of the upright food holder and the degree of taper of the upright food holder may be selected so that the upright food holder is stable when the wrapped food item is placed in the upright food holder. One may consume the wrapped food item with the use of utensils.
- The removable portions of the upright food holder may be referred to as removable sections, removable rings or removable strips of the upright food holder.

first section 104 and asecond section 105 of theupright food holder 101; removing thefirst section 104 of theupright food holder 101 and exposing a second portion of the remaining portion of wrappedfood item 301; wherein the second portion of the wrappedfood item 301 extends from the top of thesecond section 105 of theupright food holder 401 to the top of remaining portion of the wrappedfood item 301; unwrapping the protective cover from the second portion of the wrapped food item; consuming the second portion of the wrapped food item. - The next step comprises pulling the peel-away tab located between the
second section 105 and athird section 106 of theupright food holder 401; removing thesecond section 105 of theupright food holder 401 and exposing a third portion of the wrapped food item, wherein the third portion of the wrapped food item extends from the top of thethird section 106 of theupright food holder 601 to the top of the remaining portions of the wrappedfood item 501. - The next step comprises unwrapping the third portion of the wrapped food item and consuming the third portion of the wrapped food item. The next step comprises removing by hand the fourth or remaining portion of the wrapped
food item 701 from the third section of theupright food holder 601 and unwrapping the protective cover from the fourth or remaining portion of the wrappedfood item 701. Finally, the last step comprises consuming the remaining portion of the wrappedfood item 701. - The
upright food holder 601 illustrates one embodiment with three sections. Other embodiments are possible with more or less umber of sections or rings. The aforementioned process may be repeated by removing the next one or more sections of the upright food holder until the wrapped food item is consumed. - The method may further comprise the step of adding a sauce to top of the wrapped
food item 201 during the process on consuming the wrappedfood item 201. - This method may be applied to a food item that is wrapped and has a substantially cylindrical shape. The wrapped food item may be selected from the group of burritos, wraps, shawarmas, gyros, falafels, and a special shaped sandwiches. The wrapped food item may be wrapped with a protective cover, such as tin foil.
- For example, a burrito is made by placing a tortilla on a square of tin foil and placing a mixture of meat, beans, green onions, etc. on to the burrito. After sprinkling shredded cheese on top of the burrito, the burrito is rolled up with the tin foil.
- The upright food holder is a cup that may be slightly tapered, with the top larger than the bottom; the size of the cup varies depending upon the size of the wrapped food item. The sides of the upright food holder may be removed to facilitate the consumption of the wrapped food item. The methods for removing sides of the upright food holder comprise string, tape, and perforations. Hence, the upright food holder comprises either string, tape, or perforations to provide for the removal of the portions of the upright food holder.
