Abstract
A composite susceptor packaging material for use in a microwave oven is disclosed comprising at least two spaced susceptor layers in overlying relation. By using two susceptor layers, the amount of microwave energy reaching food products packaged in such material can be controlled while still heating the surface of the food product to a high enough temperature for surface browning. In this manner the inside of the food product remains moist without drying out. Also disclosed are typical packages prepared from the composite susceptor material.
