Abstract

A sandwich box for enclosing a food item that is formed of a base portion and a top portion. The upper surface of the base portion is designed to support a food item. The base portion includes a base bendable structure space. The top portion including a food cavity, a top face and a top face bendable structure. The base portion and the top portion are hingedly connected together. A portion of the top face bendable structure and the base bendable structure are positioned parallel to one another when the top and bottom portions are in a closed position. A portion of the top face bendable structure and the base bendable structure are also positioned diametrically opposed to one another when the top and bottom portions are in the closed position. The upper surface of the base portion faces into the food cavity when the top and bottom portions are in the closed position.
