Abstract

Disclosed herein is a food isolator packaging material. The food isolator packaging includes a first section and a second section, the first section including a plurality of deposit areas each having a perforation. A first food layer is deposited on a first deposit area of the plurality of deposit areas and a second food layer is deposited on a second deposit area of the plurality of deposit areas. The food isolator packaging is folded such that the second section covers the first food layer in the first deposit area and the second food layer in the second deposit area. The food isolator packaging is folded along an axis situated between the first deposit area and the second deposit area such that a perforation of the first deposit area and a perforation of the second deposit area are in alignment.

Claims (15)

1. A method of assembling a food product, comprising:

providing a food isolator packaging including a first section and a second section, the first section including a plurality of deposit areas each having a line of perforations;

depositing a first food layer on a first deposit area of the plurality of deposit areas and positioned over said line of perforations of said first deposit area, and depositing a second food layer on a second deposit area of the plurality of deposit areas and positioned over said line of perforations of said second deposit area;

folding the food isolator packaging such that the second section covers the first food layer in the first deposit area and the second food layer in the second deposit area; and

folding the food isolator packaging along an axis situated between the first deposit area and the second deposit area such that said line of perforations of the first deposit area and said line of perforations of the second deposit area are in alignment.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

depositing a third food layer on a third deposit area of the plurality of deposit areas and positioned over said line of perforations of said third deposit area;

folding the food isolator packaging such that the second section covers the third food layer in the third deposit area; and

folding the food isolating packaging along an axis situated between the first deposit area and the third deposit area such that the line of perforations of the first deposit area and said line of perforations of the third deposit area are in alignment.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein when all of said lines of perforations of the plurality of deposit areas are in alignment, the food isolator packaging is in an assembled configuration.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein all of said lines of perforations of the plurality of deposit areas are configured to be broken simultaneously according to the alignment when the food isolator packaging is in the assembled configuration.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the food isolator packaging is configured to separate into a first half and a second half when all of said lines of perforations of the plurality of deposit areas are broken simultaneously according to the alignment, and the first half and second half are configured to be removed in opposing directions.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first section and the second section are shaped as at least one of a rectangle, a square, and a sector.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein all of said lines of perforations are situated along a center axis of each respective deposit area of the plurality of deposit areas.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein all of said lines of perforations extend from the first section to respective terminal ends of the second section.
