Abstract
Abstract A container for packaging cookies or other food products is disclosed having a bowl with an upper lip and a wrap-around support attached to the upper lip and encircling the bowl to provide protection thereof. The wrap-around support may have a tear strip therein to provide access to the product. In another embodiment a series of bowls are placed on the wrap-around container and it is folded around to force them against each other for support. Weakened lines between the bowls provide for separation and access to the product.
