Benefits of technology

[0013]In yet another embodiment, a container can have a top and bottom section attached by a hinge. The container can further have a border between the top and bottom such that the border is higher at a rear end and lower at a viewing end. The hinge can be tearable and be located at the viewing end. The top and bottom can have alignment ribs that engage to prevent sliding between two containers stacked on top of each other.

Problems solved by technology

Various food containers are known in the art, but many suffer from inconvenient design features that in many cases frustrate users and detract from the experience of those trying to access the food in these containers.
Other containers are also known, but suffer from similar drawbacks.
Additionally, the hinge can be tearable and the border can form a seam that makes a free rim of the top section unavailable.
