I am a genius. I have know this for years. I do love it when I get the chance to prove to others that I am a genius, though.
Way back in the dark ages, when I was a young strapping lad in college (yeah that’s right — I am your worst nightmare; I am a Redneck with an education and I am not afraid to use it.), my room mate Mark and I worked very hard to make sure we did not have to do dishes very often. We used metal pie plates to not only cook in, but to then eat from. We were fortunate that we lived right next door to a KFC, and just half a block from a Pizza place. We would eat a lot of pizza because everything was there. We had a serving platter and plates and the main course, all in a convenient carry out container.
We would cut the box lid off and cut it into quarters for plates. On the rare occasion there was any pizza left over we would cut down the bottom of the box to store the leftovers in the fridge. We did this not so much to keep the pizza from drying out but more because we did not have a fridge big enough to fit a full-size pizza box. The only mistake I made was not getting a patent on my invention. Who new in 1983 that the environmental movement would become what it has. Not only am I a genius, I am a visionary too. I invented eco-friendly and didn’t even know it. This video from you tube is all the proof you need.
Yea I know. you are all lucky to know me too.

Ok this is just to funny, the real Jeff has come out on this article. I can honestly say it is a honor and a privilege to know you personally, you make me very proud of you, keep up the good work.
Nice post, and a good idea.
I looked up the patent, it is amazing how many words it takes lawyers to describe an invention, even something this simple. More evidence the patent system is broken.
The video calls the box “recyclable”, a little misleading, most cities treat pizza boxes as food waste, because they have, well, food on them.
