A container for heating frozen French fries in a toaster. The frozen French fries preferably have a moisture content by weight ranging from 35% to 55% prior to heating in the toaster. The container comprises an upright structure adapted to removably fit into a vertical slot of a conventional toaster and be supported by the toaster during a toaster heating cycle. The upright structure has a front and back connected to a closed bottom. The front and back have side edges and apertures through the front and back for passing heat from the toaster to frozen French fries located inside the container and for passing steam from heated French fries to outside of the container. The container has an openable end to permit removal of the French fries after heating. The closed bottom forms a drip trough for collecting drippings from the French fries. The container also has a means for protecting ends of the French fries from direct exposure to the radiant heat from the toaster so that the ends of the French fries are not burned.
