Microwavable Food Storage Container

US Patent:
6649891, Nov 18, 2003
Filed:
Sep 25, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/962505
Inventors:
Anne M Kitko - Seffner FL
Ray L. Hauser - Boulder CO
Assignee:
Anne Kitko - Seffner FL
International Classification:
H05B 680
US Classification:
219732, 219725
Abstract:
A food container for use in a microwave oven is made from an inner, food contacting, glass vessel an outer plastic vessel. Because of the external plastic layer, the container has a significantly higher thermal insulating capability than a comparable glass container. This reduces the cooling rate of cooked food and provides an extra margin of handling safety. On the other hand, the internal glass vessel will not impart a plastic flavor to food stored or cooked in the vessel, and will be immune to the blistering or discoloration that sometimes occurs with plastic vessels. In some versions of the invention, free-standing glass and plastic vessels are arranged to be interfitted for use in food storage and microwave cooking, but can be easily separated for cleaning. In other versions, the glass and plastic vessels are intimately bonded together to prohibit penetration of moisture between the two vessels.
