a second external surface constituted of an absorbent material, the second surface being constituted of a recyclable material; wherein the first inner surface abuts and is secured to the second external surface. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The disposable and recyclable food product packaging material of claim 1, wherein the first inner surface is secured to the second external surface by way of an adhesive. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The disposable and recyclable food product packaging material of claim 2, wherein the adhesive is disposed between the first inner surface and the second external surface in a continuous manner, such that the first inner surface cannot be readily separated from the second external surface. ### Claim 4 (depends on 2) The disposable and recyclable food product packaging material of claim 2, wherein the adhesive is disposed between the first inner surface and the second external surface in a discrete manner, such that the first inner surface can be readily separated from the second external surface. ### Claim 5 A disposable and recyclable food product wrapper, comprising a first surface having a first planar area, the first surface being constituted of a food-safe material, the first surface being constituted of a recyclable material; a second surface having a second planar area that generally corresponds to the first planar area, the second surface being constituted of an absorbent material, the second surface being constituted of a recyclable material; wherein the first surface abuts and is secured to the second surface. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The disposable and recyclable food product packaging wrapper of claim 5, wherein the first inner surface is secured to the second external surface by way of an adhesive. ### Claim 7 (depends on 6) The disposable and recyclable food product packaging wrapper of claim 6, wherein the adhesive is disposed between the first inner surface and the second external surface in a continuous manner, such that the first inner surface cannot be readily separated from the second external surface. ### Claim 8 (depends on 6) The disposable and recyclable food product packaging wrapper of claim 6, wherein the adhesive is disposed between the first inner surface and the second external surface in a discrete manner, such that the first inner surface can be readily separated from the second external surface. ### Claim 9 A disposable and recyclable food product package, comprising an internal cavity having a first inner surface, the first inner surface being constituted of a food-safe material, the first surface being constituted of a recyclable material; a second external surface constituted of an absorbent material, the second surface being constituted of a recyclable material; wherein the first inner surface abuts and is secured to the second external surface. ### Claim 10 (depends on 9) The disposable and recyclable food product package of claim 9, wherein the internal cavity communicates with an opening. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The disposable and recyclable food product package of claim 10, wherein the opening is selected from the group of: a resealable opening, a heat-sealed opening and a perforated, non-resealable opening. ### Claim 12 (depends on 9) The disposable and recyclable food product package of claim 9, wherein the first inner surface is secured to the second external surface by way of an adhesive. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The disposable and recyclable food product package of claim 12, wherein the adhesive is disposed between the first inner surface and the second external surface in a continuous manner, such that the first inner surface cannot be readily separated from the second external surface. ### Claim 14 (depends on 12) The disposable and recyclable food product package of claim 12, wherein the adhesive is disposed between the first inner surface and the second external surface in a discrete manner, such that the first inner surface can be readily separated from the second external surface. ### Claim 15 A method of manufacturing a disposable and recyclable food product packaging material, comprising the steps of: providing a first component constituted of a food-safe material, the first component being constituted of a recyclable material; Providing a second component such that it at least partially abuts the first component, the second component constituted of an absorbent material, the second surface being constituted of a recyclable material; Laminating the first component to the second component to result in a laminated disposable and recyclable food product packaging material. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The method of claim 15, wherein the step of laminating the first component to the second component further comprises: Depositing an adhesive between abutting portions of the first component and the second component. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The method of claim 16, wherein the step of laminating the first component to the second component further comprises: Applying a predetermined pressure to the abutting portions of the first component and the second component. ### Claim 18 (depends on 15) The method of claim 15, further comprising the step of: Drying the laminated disposable and recyclable food product packaging material. ### Claim 19 (depends on 15) The method of claim 15, further comprising the step of: perforating the laminated disposable and recyclable food product packaging material. ### Claim 20 (depends on 15) The method of claim 15, further comprising the step of: storing the laminated disposable and recyclable food product packaging material on a roll.
