A container lid system is provided. The lid system may be constructed of two parts: a lid portion and a food container portion. A top cover may also be used. The food container portion may employ a condiment receiving structure that receives a condiment package/container or an unpackaged condiment.
A container lid system is provided. The lid system may be constructed of two parts: a lid portion and a food container portion. A top cover may also be used. The food container portion may employ a condiment receiving structure that receives a condiment package/container or an unpackaged condiment. The container lid system allows a user to consume food items while the food container portion is coupled to a cup lid or alternatively the food container portion may be decoupled and placed on a table. The cross sections of the lid portion and the food container portion are substantially complementary to each other, such that the food container portion may snuggly mate with the lid portion. Thermoforming may be used to create each of the three parts, and the parts may snap-fit together. Different materials may be used for the parts including black opaque plastic, white opaque plastic and clear plastic.
