Claim Text:
1. A system for transporting a comestible product carrier, the system comprising: a comestible product carrier defining a U-shaped configuration, the comestible product carrier including (i) a bottom wall defining a surface for supporting a length of a comestible product, (ii) two side walls extending from the bottom wall, the two side walls extending a length of the comestible product carrier, and each of the two side walls defining a height, and (iii) an open top opposing the bottom wall; an apparatus comprising: (i) a bottom wall, (ii) two side walls each defining a height and extending substantially perpendicularly from the bottom wall, each of the two side walls defining a continuous uninterrupted surface, and the two side walls are hingedly joined relative to the bottom wall by a first set of score lines, and (iii) two top walls extending inwardly towards each other from the respective two side walls, the two top walls extending substantially parallel to the bottom wall, and the two top walls are hingedly joined to the respective two side walls by a second set of score lines, wherein the bottom wall, the two side walls and the two top walls are configured and dimensioned to form a structure which wraps around the comestible product carrier; a first end hingedly joined to a first of the two top walls and including a first handle portion and a second end hingedly joined to a second of the two top walls and including a second handle portion, the first handle portion including a first opening and a flap joined to the first handle portion by a connector portion, the second handle portion including a second opening with a groove complementary to the connector portion of the first handle portion, the connector portion and the groove being configured to releasably interlock the first and second handle portions to define an inner passage; and a proximal open end and an opposing distal open end of the structure configured and dimensioned to permit passage of the comestible product carrier through the inner passage; wherein the height of the two side walls of the comestible product carrier is greater than the height of the two side walls of the apparatus such that the side walls of the comestible product carrier engage the bottom wall and the two top walls of the apparatus to form a friction fit to restrict or limit movement of the comestible product carrier relative to the apparatus.
