Abstract
The disclosure relates to a taco holder wherein a blank is provided with a central region and four legs extending outwardly from the central region, a pair of adjacent legs on each side of the central region. Each leg is in the shape of a right triangle with each leg being secured to the central region at a crease. Each leg includes a notch at a portion thereof remote from the central region, a pair of legs on opposite sides of the central region being opposed to each other whereby the notches therein can mate and form a V-shaped trough. Two such V-shaped troughs are thereby formed to support a taco therein. An adhesive material can be disposed on a surface of the central region to secure the taco holder to a table or the like to free the hands of the taco maker and also to prevent sliding of the taco during preparation or eating thereof.
