Embodiment Construction

[0014] Figure 1A shown can be used to form the microwave heating structure 146 ( Figure 1C and 1D ) schematic top plan view of one side of an exemplary blank 100 . The blank 100 generally includes a plurality of wires connected along a weakening or splitting line (e.g., a fold line, a tear line, a scoring line, a cutting crease line, a cutting space line, or any other weakening or splitting line or any combination thereof). board or section. Each of the blank 100 and the various panels or sections generally has a first dimension, such as a length, extending in a first direction, such as a longitudinal direction D1, and a second dimension, such as a length, extending in a second direction, such as a transverse direction D2, such as width. It will be understood that such designations are merely for convenience and do not necessarily indicate or limit the manner in which the blanks will be manufactured or erected into structures. Blank 100 may be symmetrical or approximatel...

Abstract

A microwave heating construct includes a substantially tubular body having a pair of open ends and an interior space for receiving a food item. The body comprises a plurality of foldably joined panel segments extending between the open ends of the body, and microwave energy interactive material operative for converting at least a portion of impinging microwave energy into thermal energy. A plurality of support elements may extend downwardly from the body.

Description

[0001] Horizontal references to related applications [0002] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Application No. 61 / 455,294, filed October 18, 2010, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to an apparatus or structure for heating or cooking microwavable food. In particular, the present disclosure relates to an apparatus or structure for heating or cooking food in a microwave oven, wherein the food has a curved surface that is desirably browned and / or crisped. Background technique [0004] Microwave ovens provide a convenient means for heating a variety of foods, including sandwiches and other bread and / or pasta products, such as pizza and pies. However, microwave ovens tend to cook such foods unevenly and do not achieve the ideal balance of thorough heating and browned, crispy skin, especially if the food has a curved or irregular shape. Thus, there remains a need for improved mat...
