A multi-sided container for storing and heating food prepared from a blank of paperboard includes a bottom panel and upstanding end, corner and side walls. A first set of angular panels are connected to the corner walls and the base panel. The first angular panels overlap and are bonded to the base panel. A second set of angular panels are connected to the first angular panels and to the end walls. The second angular panels overlap and are bonded to the end walls. Vertical flange extensions extending from the corner walls and the second angular panels overlap and are bonded together with the raw edges facing away from the container.

Multi-sided container

An improved technique for uniformly distributing crisping or browning heat supplementation in disposable paper food carton or containers and the like used for microwave cooking, in which a metallized susceptor film is employed mounted to but intermediately spaced from the adjacent inner wall of the container to define and seal an air pocket which, in heating, improves the uniformity of the browning result through convection into air pocket and responsive flexing of the film.
