An improved bacon package is disclosed. The stiffening packaging element, commonly known as a bacon board, has full width top and bottom panels which support the bacon from the bottom and cover it over the entire top. Cover flaps on the ends of the top panel are defined by lines of weak bending resistance, and function to cover the ends of the array of bacon when the packaging element and bacon are enclosed in plastic films in a vacuum packaging operation. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION In brief, the invention is a stiffening packaging element adapted to support and retain sliced product in a shingled array, the element having a supporting panel and a retaining panel.
The supporting and retaining panels each are generally rectangular, having two longer sides and side edges defining the length of each panel and two shorter ends and end edges defining the width of each panel.
The two panels are joined together by a hinge line along common side edges, such that the retaining panel may be rotated about the hinge line and over the supporting panel to overlie and substantially cover the supporting panel.
The retaining panel has, on each of its ends, a substantially continuous transverse line of weak bending resistance extending from the vicinity of the intersections of the common side edge and the end edges, inwardly of the end edges, across the width of the retaining panel, to the adjoining intersection of the same respective end edges and the opposite side edge.
The transverse lines of weak bending resistance and their respective end edges define cover flaps on the ends of the retaining panel.
The supporting panel has sides and ends corresponding to the sides and ends of the retaining panel respectively when the retaining panel overlies the supporting panel.
The ends of the supporting panel are devoid of lines of weak bending resistance corresponding to the lines of weak bending resistance on the ends of the retaining panel.
In preferred embodiments, each of the transverse lines of weak bending resistance is a continuous arc having a constant center of curvature.
In certain of the preferred embodiments, each end of the retaining panel has cuts extending inwardly of the cover flaps from the corresponding end edge.
The cuts may extend to the line of weak bending resistance.
The cuts may be cut lines.
In especially preferred embodiments, the cuts are equally spaced from each other and extend in a direction parallel to the hinge line, and the lines of weak bending resistance are formed by cut scores, the cut scores in the lines of weak bending resistance being discontinuous at the intersections of the lines of weak bending resistance with the cuts
