A plastic egg carton having features that enable aligning and stacking of multiple cartons for transport, and providing easy-to-view print and labeling areas in multiple directions. In one embodiment, the egg carton has a unique lid including a flat diagonal stacking panel (also referred to as a diagonal lid panel) that extends between two opposing corners of the rectangular shaped carton. The top wall of the diagonal lid panel can receive labeling or printing. The diagonal lid panel also includes a sidewall extending downwardly from the top wall toward a bottom perimeter edge of the lid, the sidewall having at each of the two opposing corners at least one flat side panel that can also receive printing or labeling. In one embodiment, each of the opposing corners includes a rounded corner portion and two flat side panels disposed on either side of the rounded corner, thus providing a total of four side viewing areas (each in a different direction) for labeling or printing, enabling the consumer to view information such as egg size, date, nutritional information, retail information, or UPC labels.
