A blank including a single rectangular sheet of paperboard having opposed top and bottom edges and opposed left and right edges. The sheet has a midline spaced equally from the left and right edges, with a cut that extends from the top edge to a point spaced from the top edge, and a fold line that extends from the point to the bottom edge. The sheet also has a first zone that extends from midline to right edge along the bottom edge, a second zone that extends from bottom edge to a line spaced from the top edge along the right edge, a third zone that extends from midline to left edge along the bottom edge, and a fourth zone that extends from bottom edge to the line along the left edge. The first and second zones are configured to join the third and fourth zones.

A paperboard food container includes a paperboard receptacle and a paperboard closure. The paperboard receptacle encloses, in an assembled state, a three-dimensional space in which a food product may be disposed and has an opening through which the food product enters the space. The paperboard closure is disposed across the opening, and includes first and second surfaces, one of the first and second surfaces, one of which has a tamper-evident region of weakness that may be irreversibly split to open the closure.
B65D 5/20 - Rigid or semi-rigid containers of polygonal cross-section, e.g. boxes, cartons or trays, formed by folding or erecting one or more blanks made of paper by folding-up portions connected to a central panel from all sides to form a container body, e.g. of tray-like form
B65D 5/24 - Rigid or semi-rigid containers of polygonal cross-section, e.g. boxes, cartons or trays, formed by folding or erecting one or more blanks made of paper by folding-up portions connected to a central panel from all sides to form a container body, e.g. of tray-like form with adjacent sides interconnected by gusset folds
B65D 5/54 - Lines of weakness to facilitate opening of container or dividing it into separate parts by cutting or tearing
A paperboard food container incudes a receptacle with an opening, and a closure disposed across the opening. The closure includes two surfaces, one having a tamper-evident region of weakness. One of the surfaces has an edge with a length and a tab attached to the edge, the tab having a first position wherein the tab overlies a portion of the surface having a length substantially equal to the length of the edge and a second position wherein the tab is spaced from the surface. One of the tab and the portion of the surface has an adhesive disposed thereon, and the other of the tab and the portion has a release coating disposed thereon. With the tab in the first position, the adhesive cannot be joined to the other surface, but with the tab in the second position, the surfaces may be joined to seal the closure.
B65D 5/06 - Rigid or semi-rigid containers of polygonal cross-section, e.g. boxes, cartons or trays, formed by folding or erecting one or more blanks made of paper by folding or erecting a single blank to form a tubular body with or without subsequent folding operations, or the addition of separate elements, to close the ends of the body with end-closing or contents-supporting elements formed by folding inwardly a wall extending from, and continuously around, an end of the tubular body
B65D 5/02 - Rigid or semi-rigid containers of polygonal cross-section, e.g. boxes, cartons or trays, formed by folding or erecting one or more blanks made of paper by folding or erecting a single blank to form a tubular body with or without subsequent folding operations, or the addition of separate elements, to close the ends of the body
