Abstract
A patch bag has a patch adhered to a bag, with a primary seal primary seal across an uncovered portion of the bag, and a supplemental seal inward of the primary seal. The supplemental seal reduces or eliminates an uncovered region between the primary seal and the patch, and prevents a product in the bag from contacting the primary seal. The patch bag is especially useful in the packaging of a bone-in meat product, especially ham, sparerib, picnic, back rib, short loin, short rib, whole turkey, pork loin.
