Abstract
An interlockable reusable container for a food product, especially for a leftover piece of pizza pie, made of a thermoplastic material comprising a pie-shaped base, two substantially flat side walls attached to the base meeting in a common vertex, one of these side walls having an exterior tongue member and the other having an exterior groove member which are shaped so that the reusable container is laterally interlockable with another reusable container, a rear wall attached to the side walls and the base and a removable lid having a lid panel which rests on the side walls and a plug member which fits in the top opening of the reusable container when the lid is in place on the container. The lid panel and base may have a similar tongue and groove system so that the reusable containers can be stacked compactly in stable vertical stacks. An optional ceramic heat retention plate having a plurality of feet members shaped to just fit in the reusable container resting on the base of the reusable container can be provided.
