Abstract

A durable, reusable dual compartment sandwich container having upper and lower compartments that are pivotally connected to one another and separated by a rotatable divider. One or more slices of bread or an elongated sandwich roll is carried within the upper compartment and the ingredients for a sandwich are carried in the lower compartment. The divider is rotated over top of the lower compartment so as to segregate the wet ingredients from the dry bread and thereby prevent the bread from becoming soggy. A removable hot/cold pack is also carried within the lower compartment to provide heat or cold to the sandwich ingredients over a prolonged period of time in order to avoid the premature spoilage of the ingredients prior to consumption. In one embodiment, each of the upper and lower compartments, the divider and the hot/cold pack is shaped to resemble a slice of bread, so that in the closed configuration, the overall appearance of the sandwich container is that of a sandwich, whereby to provide a visual indication of the intended use thereof.
