Abstract
A box, or carton, for carry-out restaurant foods, includes a collapsible box body formed out of cardboard. Upper and lower straps are anchored to the box side walls and the box end walls to span the box corners. These straps can be pulled away from the box walls to form loops for retaining or stabilizing beverage containers located in corner areas of the box. The straps engage the cups near the upper and lower edges of the cups, so that the cup is effectively restrained against tipping or sliding. The box is provided with a cardboard carrying handle that can be folded into the box when it is desired to fold the box walls into a flat package suitable for storage or shipment.
