Abstract
A two-part food containment and waste handling system with an upper portion containing at least one food containment region, and a lower portion with at least one waste-handling region. The upper portion and lower potion fit together at an interface.
Claims21
A substantially rigid two part food containment and waste handling system comprising:
- an upper portion including:
- at least one food containment region;
- and
- a lower portion interface region;
- and
- a lower portion including
- at least one waste containment region;
- a support system operable to provide support on a substantially planer surface;
- an upper portion interface region, and
- at least one aperture region with a path to the waste containment region;
- wherein the lower portion interface region, and the upper portion interface region are compatible with each other;
- and
- the at least one aperture region is associated with an outer perimeter region of at least one of the upper or lower portion, such that waste may be provided to the at least one aperture region.

A two part food containment and waste handling system comprising:
- an upper portion with a food containment region, an upper perimeter edge, and a lower portion interface region;
- and
- a lower portion with at least one waste containment region,
- a lower perimeter edge,
- an upper portion interface region, and
