Food serving apparatus

A user-foldable, food-serving apparatus comprising:

• a food-supporting member made of a material sized and having sufficient rigidity to support the typical bottom area and the weight of at least one item of food-item when said apparatus is held at one end in a substantially horizontal orientation, and said food-supporting member having at least one foldable segment positionable by a user to facilitate eating and to prevent the served food from contacting unsanitary surfaces when said food-supporting member is placed in a flattened condition on a surface;
• said food-supporting member having a plurality of side walls extending upward adjacent from outer edges of said food-supporting member in a manner which increases the rigidity of said food-supporting member, wherein said plurality of said side walls define an opening and have at least one reduced cross-section and said plurality of side walls are sized to surround a majority of the perimeter of said at least one food-item having sufficient rigidity to facilitate the retention of, said at least one food-item on the food-supporting member;
• said plurality of side walls further comprising an upward extending rear wall having a food-securing tab foldably connected adjacent to and extending forward from an upper edge thereof, said tab having a width which spans a majority of the width of a served food and is operable by the digits of a hand to assist a user in securing food beneath the tab and above said food-supporting member in a manner which supports served food in a horizontal orientation, during the eating of said food by said user;
• said food-supporting member having at least one bendable line extending across said food-supporting member;
• said at least one user-breakable joint being located tangent to an end of said bendable line further comprising at least one shaped aperture to facilitate a breaking of said side walls at said at least one user-breakable joint, whereby
• the breaking of said at least one user-breakable joint allows a user to selectively bend said at least one segment of said food-supporting member downward and away from food supported on said food-supporting member to facilitate eating the food extending beyond the user folded said at least one-segment of the apparatus, and to selectively unfold previously folded said at least one segment to a generally flattened orientation preventing said at least one food-item from contacting unsanitary surfaces when the apparatus is placed in a resting position wherein the shape of said food-supporting member of said apparatus is triangular in shape.
