Abstract
A carton for a single layer of tomatoes or the like is formed of single thickness corrugated fiberboard which is doubled over at fold lines along opposing walls is provided. The fold lines lie in differing planes so that each of two opposing walls have relatively long recesses at the upper portions thereof with a doubled thickness of fiberboard below such recesses. The other opposing walls include a double thickness along substantially the entire length of the wall. Corner members extend across the top corners of the carton to strengthen the carton as well as to facilitate stacking of cartons. Optional upstanding tabs facilitate stacking. The recesses promote airflow over tomatoes or the like held in the carton.
