Abstract

A carton (20) capable of containing a plurality of food items is disclosed. The carton (20) can be separated into two portions or trays (26), each of which can be converted into a tray for heating a food item in a microwave oven. One or both of the trays (26) may be designed to elevate the food product from the turntable or floor of the microwave oven to enhance the efficiency of the heating process. One or both trays (26) may include a microwave energy interactive to enhance browning and/or crisping of the food item..
