Abstract

Packaging, in particular pre-packaging, for food, comprising a side part. The side part encloses a receiving space for food, and a bottom part. The bottom part is connected to the side part. The connection between the side part and the bottom part includes, at least partially, a releasable connection. The connection between the side part and the bottom part includes, at least partially, a permanent connection. The permanent connection is at least partially movable. The at least partially movable configuration of the permanent connection allows a hinge effect between the side part and the bottom part. The bottom part can be folded down after an at least partially release of the releasable connection.
