Food container

1. A food container comprising:

a body including a first and second receptacle;

a first food product contained in the first receptacle;

a second food product contained in the second receptacle, wherein the first and second receptacles are in a stacked relationship relative to one another;

a lid including two peelable portions coupled to the body, a first portion enclosing the first receptacle and a second portion enclosing the second receptacle, each portion providing a barrier completely enclosing its respective receptacle from the environment and having a permeability, the first portion having a permeability different than the second portion and the receptacles being in a stacked relationship relative to one another such that the two peelable portions of the lid are adjacent to one another; and

a separator member positioned between the stacked receptacles and forming a gap between the stacked receptacles to enable air to flow in and out of the first and second receptacles only through the first portion and the second portion based up the permeability of the lid.

2. The food container of claim 1 , wherein each receptacle is configured to receive its respective food product.

3. The food container of claim 1 , wherein the permeability of each portion is determined based on the type of food product contained therein.

4. The food container of claim 1 , wherein the lid includes at least two pieces corresponding to the two portions.

5. The food container of claim 1 , wherein the lid is flexible.

6. The food container of claim 1 , wherein each receptacle has a periphery adjacent the receptacle opening and wherein the lid is sealed to the body near the periphery of each receptacle.

7. The food container of claim 1 , wherein the body includes a hinge between the first and second receptacles.

8. The food container of claim 7 , wherein a plurality of perforations form the hinge.

9. The food container of claim 7 , wherein one receptacle is movable into the stacked relationship with the other receptacle.

10. The food container of claim 6 , further including a plurality of separator members positioned along the periphery of at least one of the first and second receptacles.

11. The food container of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of separator members are rail members.

12. A food container comprising:

a body including at least two product receptacles containing at least two different food products and a hinge, each receptacle having a periphery;

a peelable lid including at least two pieces coupled to the body, the at least two pieces enclosing the at least two respective receptacles and providing a barrier completely enclosing the receptacles from the environment, each piece having a permeability; and

at least one separator member extending upwardly from a periphery of one of the receptacles in a direction opposite to that of the receptacle,

wherein one of the pieces has a permeability higher than the others of the pieces,

wherein one of the receptacles is movable into a stacked relationship relative to one of the other of the receptacles by way of the hinge such that the at least two pieces are adjacent, and

wherein the at least one separator member is configured to separate the stacked receptacles to allow air to flow in and out of both receptacles only through the two pieces subject to the permeability of the pieces.

13. The food container of claim 12 , where a first food product is contained in the first receptacle and a second food product is contained in the second receptacle.

14. The food container of claim 12 , wherein each receptacle is configured to receive its respective food product.

15. The food container of claim 12 , wherein the permeability of each piece is determined based on the type of food product contained therein.

16. The food container of claim 12 , wherein the lid is flexible.

17. The food container of claim 12 , wherein the lid is sealed to the body near the periphery of each receptacle.

18. The food container of claim 12 , wherein a plurality of perforations form the hinge.

19. The food container of claim 12 , wherein the at least one separator members includes a plurality of rail members.

20. The food container of claim 19 , where the plurality of rail members are spaced around a periphery of at least one of the receptacles.

21. The food container of claim 19 , wherein the plurality of rail members are spaced around a periphery of the first and second receptacles.

22. A food container comprising:

a first receptacle containing a first food product and having a periphery;

a first peelable lid completely enclosing the first receptacle from the environment and having a first permeability;

a second receptacle containing a second food product and having a periphery;

a second peelable lid completely enclosing the second receptacle from the environment and having a second permeability; and

a plurality of separators positioned on the periphery of the first receptacle extending away from the first receptacle;

wherein the first permeability is different than the second permeability;

wherein the receptacles are stacked so that the first and second lids are adjacent; and

wherein the separators facilitate air flow in and out of both receptacles only through the respective first and second peelable lids subject to the permeability of the first and second lids.

23. The food container of claim 22 wherein the first receptacle is secured to the second receptacle.

24. The food container of claim 22 , wherein the plurality of separators include a plurality of rail members positioned around the periphery of the first and the second receptacle.
